Abstract
Abstract A framed electrically conductive honeycomb is provided by assembling an electrically conductive honeycomb, an electrically conductive frame for the honeycomb and an electrically conductive textile positioned between the frame and around the periphery of the outer cells of the honeycomb and in contact with both, and then coating the assembly in a metal plating bath to coat the assembly with a coating of an electrically conductive compound thereby assuring continuous mechanical, strong physical and electrical contact between the frame and the honeycomb, as well as a noncorrosion coating.
