Abstract

A method of attaching metal compounds to articles formed from synthetic polymers wherein the articles are subjected to the action of hydrogen sulfide under pressure or to the action of an aqueous solution of a thioacetamide or thiourea, and then to the action of an aqueous solution of a silver, copper (cupric or cuprous), lead, tin or mercury salt. This method makes it possible to obtain articles, particularly textile articles, of improved electrical conductivity.
