Metalized plastic substrates, and methods thereof are provided herein. The method includes providing a plastic substrate having a plurality of accelerators dispersed in the plastic substrate. The accelerators have a formula selected from the group consisting of: CuFe2O4-δ, Ca0.25Cu0.75TiO3-β, and TiO2-σ, wherein δ, β, σ denotes oxygen vacancies in corresponding accelerators and 0.05≦δ≦0.8, 0.05≦β≦0.5, and 0.05≦σ≦1.0. The method further includes removing at least a portion of a surface of the plastic substrate to expose at least a first accelerator. The method further includes plating the exposed surface of the plastic substrate to form at least a first metal layer on the at least first accelerator, and then plating the first metal layer to form at least a second metal layer. |
