ABS mouldings for electroplating—An electron microscope study
TLDR
In this paper, a method for preparing replicas of acid-etched ABS surfaces is described, and it is concluded that orientation in the surface of injection-moulded articles is responsible for lowering the peel strength, probably by reducing the penetration of the metal plating layer into the subsurface of the polymer and hence weakening the key between the two materials.About:

TL;DR: In this paper, the existence of a strong bond between the rubber and matrix is revealed by structure on the base of cavities from which rubber particles are torn, interpreted as being due to plastic deformation and fracture of the matrix at the interface between the two phases.
