Abstract
Provided is a process for making metal coated non-crystallized, amorphous glass fibers. The process fiberizes a glass containing a metal oxide such as cuprous oxide. The process then heat-treats the fibers to form a semi-conductive layer of copper oxide on the surface. A subsequent reactive reduction step produces a semi-continuous film of metallic copper. This is conductive enough for many radar applications.
