Abstract

In order to improve electromagnetic shielding property of poly (ether ether ketone)/carbon nanotubes composite, a nickel-phosphorus coating was covered on the composite by electroless plating. The morphologies of the substrates and the coatings were characterized by SEM. XPS was performed to analyze the surface composition and chemical states before and after chemical etching. The results showed that lots of microscopic holes appeared and evenly distributed on the surface, and the concentration of hydrophilic groups on the surface increased after the composite was etched. Thermal shock test showed that the adhesive strength between the coating and the composite was good.
