Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1335042A2] Production of a heat exchanger comprises: applying an open-pore foam matrix made from a plastic with an electroconductive surface on a component, electrochemically metallizing the matrix and at least one part of the component to form a heat-conducting element, and thermochemically removing the matrix. Preferred Features: An electroconductive layer is applied on the foam matrix to form an electroconductive surface. The component is a tube which preferably forms a wall of a container. The electroconductive layer is applied on the foam matrix using copper deposition from a tartrate electrolyte. The electrochemically metallization is carried out using electrochemical copper deposition from a pyrophosphate electrolyte.
