Process of metallizing surfaces

Claim 1

A PROCESS OF METALLIZING A SURFACE OF A HEAT RESISTANT MATERIAL WITH A NOBLE METAL TO OBTAIN A UNIFORM CONDUCTING AND FIRMLY ADHERENT COATING COMPOSITION, FIRST, MIXING TOGETHER THOROUGHLY A SUSPENSION OF A REDUCIBLE COMPOUND OF SAID NOBLE METAL AND A SOLUTION OF AN ORGANIC REDUCING AGENT FOR SAID NOBLE METAL COMPOUND IN A COMBUSTIBLE ORGANIC SOLVENT FOR SAID REDUCING AGENT, SECOND, PROVIDING SAID MIXTURE WITH INGREDIENTS WHICH WILL REACT AT HIGH TEMPERATURES TO FORM A FLUX FOR SAID NOBLE METAL, THIRD, MAINTAINING SAID MIXTURE AT A TEMPERATURE REQUIRED FOR SAID NOBLE METAL COMPOUND TO BE REDUCED BY SAID REDUCING AGENT UNTIL THE REACTION IS COMPLETE AND A DISPERSION OF SAID METAL HAS BEEN FORMED, FOURTH, APPLYING THE MIXTURE THUS FORMED TO SAID SURFACE AND, FIFTH, FIRING THE MIXTURE ON SAID SURFACE AT AN ELEVATED TEMPERATURE TO FORM SAID FLUX BY THE REACTION OF SAID INGREDIENTS AND TO BURN OFF THE ORGANIC CONSTITUENTS UNTIL AN ADHERENT COATING OF THE NOBLE METAL HAS BEEN FORMED ON SAID SURFACE.
