The plating modifier suitable in the composition of the invention is an acrylic rubber graft copolymer. Such graft copolymers have been described as interpolymeric composites in U.S.
Patents 4,096,202 and 3,808,180 and as graft copolymers in U.S. Patent 4,022,748 all incorporated by reference herein.
Acrylic rubber interpolymer composites are compositions comprising about 25 to 95 percent by weight of a first elastomeric phase and about 75 to 5 percent by weight of a second, rigid, thermoplastic phase. The first phase is polymerized from about 75 to 99.8 percent by weight C to C8 acrylate resulting in an acrylic rubber core having a glass transition temperature below about 10 C which is cross-linked with 0.1 to 5 percent by. weight of a cross-linking monomer and to which is added 0.1 to 5 percent by weight of a graft-linking monomer.
The preferred alkyl acrylate is butyl acrylate. The cross-linking monomer is a polyethylenically unsaturated monomer having a plurality of addition polymerizable reactive groups all of which polymerize at substantially the same rate of reaction. Suitable cross-linking monomers include polyacryiic and polymethacrylic esters of polyols such as butylene diacrylate and dimethacrylate, trimethylol propane trimethylacrylate and the like, di-and trivinyl benzene, vinyl acrylate and methacrylate, and the like. The preferred cross-linking monomer is butylene diacrylate. The graftlinking monomer is a polyethylenically unsaturated monomer having a plurality of addition polymerizable reactive groups, at least one of which polymerizing at a substantially different rate of polymerization from at least one other of said reactive groups.The function of the graft-linking monomer is to provide a residual level of unsaturation in the elastomeric phase, particularly in the later stages of polymerization and consequently at or near the surface of the elastomer particles. The preferred graft-linking monomers are alkyl methacrylate and dialkylmaleate.
The final stage monomer system can be comprised of C, to C16 methacrylate, styrene, acrylonitrile, alkyl acrylates, alkyl methacrylate, dialkyl methacrylate, and the like. Preferably, the final stage monomer system is at least 50 weight percent C1 to C4 alkyl methacrylate.
A certain acrylic rubber interpolymer composite characterized in that acrylic rubber core is comprised of n-butyl acrylate and in that its cross-linking agent is 1,3-butylene diacrylate and in which the graft-linking agent is diallyl maleate and the second phase monomeric system of which is methylmethacrylate is available under the tradename Acryloid KM 330 from Rohm & Haas.
Additional suitable acrylate based plating modifiers are available from Rohm & Haas under the trade names Acryloid KM 2330, 3330, and 2301 (also known as ES 8301SXP).
Other suitable graft copolymers have rubber elastic properties and a glass transition temperature below -200C. Their preparation entails a prepolymer made from at least 10% of Ca-Ca5 acrylate and from 0.1% to about 10% of a graft linking monomer having 2 olefinic double bonds which are not conjugated. The prepolymer is grafted with 10-85 parts by weight, preferably 20 to 75 parts by weight of styrene and/or methacrylates and/or methacrylic or acrylic acid. The parts by weight are in relation to 100 parts of prepolymer.
In the practice of the invention, a thermoplastic molding composition is prepared by blending a polycarbonate resin with up to about 1 percent, preferably 0.30 to about 0.95 percent, most preferably 0.40 to about 0.85 percent of a plating modifier, said percents being relative to the total weight of the resin and modifier.
In an additional embodiment of the invention the composition comprises a polycarbonate resin and a plating modifier in an amount of 0.3 to 25 percent, preferably 0.3 to 20 percent most preferably 0.3 to 10% in relation to the weight of the resin, and a flame retarding agent in an amount sufficient to render the composition a flammability rating of V-O, 1/8" in accordance with UL-94.
The compositions of the invention may further contain auxiliary additives such as pigments, stabilizers, release agents, fillers and reinforcing agents all of which are conventional and are known in the art.
The invention is illustrated below but is not intended to be limited by the examples in which all parts and percentages are by weight unless otherwise specified.

Further compositions in accordance with the invention were prepared and their properties determined as shown below. In this series the resin was Merlong FCR polycarbonate which is a homopolycarbonate based on bisphenol A having a melt flow index of about 22.5 gm/10 min.
The composition also contained the indicated amount of a plating modifier (Acryloid KM 330 interpolymeric composite) and about 0.1% of a flame retarding agent (potassium perfluorobutane sulfonate). Molded specimens were prepared using conventional means and procedures and the specimens coated with a thin layer of copper by an electroless process. The peel strength, indicating the degree of adhesion of the coating to the molded part was determined as shown below.

The specimens were coated with a thin layer of copper by an electroless process. The coated plates were then dried and oven-aged at 85"C and the formation of blisters resulting during the aging process was monitored.
