TL;DR: In this paper, a pre-treatment of the substrate with phosphorus sesquisulfide in an organic solvent is used to deposit the phosphorus at the surface, followed by contacting the treated surface with a metal salt or complex thereof, to form a metal-phosphorus-sulfur compound and then with a solution of an alkali metal hydroxide or carbonate or ammonium hydride or a nonoxidizing mineral acid.
Abstract: Substrates, particularly plastics, are plated with metals by pretreatment of the substrate with phosphorus sesquisulfide in an organic solvent to deposit phosphorus sesquisulfide at the surface, followed by contacting the treated surface with a metal salt or complex thereof, to form a metal-phosphorus-sulfur compound and then with a solution of an alkali metal hydroxide or carbonate or ammonium hydroxide or a nonoxidizing mineral acid. The resulting treated surface is either conductive or is capable of catalyzing the reduction of a metal salt to produce a conductive surface. Such conductive surfaces are readily electroplated by conventional techniques.

TL;DR: In this paper, the reactions of a variety of activated vinyl compounds with cotton cellulose fabric containing quaternary ammonium hydroxide substituents were explored, and the results were analyzed and discussed in terms of accessibility of the cellulosic compositions and in the efficiency of the quaternaries ammonium substituent as catalysts for the addition reactions.
Abstract: The reactions of a variety of activated vinyl compounds with cotton cellulose fabric containing quaternary ammonium hydroxide substituents were explored. Each reaction, catalyzed by the basic groups in the cellulose, was followed to or near the point of leveling off. The results are analyzed and discussed in terms of accessibility of the cellulosic compositions and in terms of the efficiency of the quaternary ammonium substituents as catalysts for the addition reactions. Estimates of relative forward rate constants (kf) and equilibrium constants (K) for the reactions were made. The values of kf for reactions of the vinyl compounds with the quaternary ammonium celluloses show a relative order which is similar to that for the reactions of the vinyl compounds with simple alcohols. Evidence is presented to indicate that, in some cases, the addition of vinyl compounds is accompanied by anionic-catalyzed graft polymerization.

TL;DR: In this paper, the quaternization of 2-diethylaminoethyl substituents was used to generate quaternized cotton cellulose fabrics with quaternary ammonium hydroxide groups.
Abstract: Cotton cellulose fabrics containing quaternary ammonium hydroxide groups at three levels of substitution were prepared directly from reaction of print cloth with 3-chloro- 2-hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride or with glycidyltrimethylammonium chlo ride. The reactions involved sodium hydroxide solutions of mecerizing strength. The chemically-modified fabrics were characterized for primary physical performance proper ties and for self-catalyzed reactions with divinyl sulfone and bis-(2-hydroxyethyl) sul fone. The results extend information already reported for unmercerized cotton cellulose containing quaternary ammonium hydroxide groups generated by quaternization of 2-diethylaminoethyl substituents. The nature of the quaternary ammonium substituent and the mercerized or unmercerized state of the cotton fibers are shown to have a bearing on the efficiency of this self-catalyzed reaction and on the wrinkle recovery angles and other properties developed in the products.
