METHOD OF MANUFACTURING ALUMINUM STRUCTURE, AND ALUMINUM STRUCTURE

摘要

There is provided a method of manufacturing an aluminum structure, including a electrical conduction treatment of forming an electrically conductive layer on a surface of a resin molded body, the electrically conductive layer being made of one or more metals selected from the group consisting of gold, silver, platinum, rhodium, ruthenium, palladium, nickel, copper, cobalt, iron, and aluminum, and a plating process of plating the resin molded body subjected to the electrical conduction treatment with aluminum in a molten salt bath. The method of manufacturing an aluminum structure allows aluminum plating on the surface of even a porous resin molded body having a three-dimensional network structure. In particular, there is also provided a method of manufacturing an aluminum structure that can form porous aluminum having a large area.
