<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide stable zero-valent metal compositions that are useful as catalysts for metallization of a non-conductive substrate zero-valent metal, and to provide methods of making and using these compositions. <P>SOLUTION: The composition contains: a zero-valent metal selected from 0.5-100 ppm of Pd, Ag, Co, Ni, Au, Cu and Ru; a stabilizer; and water. The composition is prepared by mixing water, a water-soluble metallic salt and a specific stabilizer, and then adding sufficient amount of reducer to form a zero-valent metal. The composition is especially useful for electroless metal plating of a non-conductive substrate used for manufacturing of electronic devices. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
