Technique for coating or marking glass strands

摘要

A method for providing a metallic coating on glass strands or organically precoated glass strands comprising the steps of coating the glass strand (or organically precoated glass strand) with a metallorganic material, heating the metallorganically coated glass strand (or organically precoated glass strand) to a temperature sufficient to degrade the metallorganic material and drive off the organic portion thereby leaving a metallic coating behind, and cooling the now metal coated glass strand (or organically precoated glass strand) to a useful temperature.
