Abstract

The invention relates to a method for metallic coating of fibers by liquid technique, in which a fiber, coated with a material forming a diffusion barrier with the metal, is drawn through a liquid metal bath to be coated therewith. The method is characterized in that prior to the passage of the fiber into the bath, the fiber is coated with a compound wettable by the metal. The coating of the fiber by the metal is facilitated by the presence of the compound, forming an interface wettable by the metal.
