Copper Electroless Metallization of Cellulose Paper via Polydopamine Coating and Silver Catalyst

The paper presents the results of copper electroless metallization of cellulose paper with the use of a polydopamine coating and silver catalyst. The polydopamine coating was deposited via a simple dip method using a dopamine hydrochloride solution in 10 mM TRIS-HCl buffer with a pH of 8.5. The rese...
