Abstract

A method of producing electrically conductive metallic structures in or on textiles, which has the following steps:

(a) introducing at least one non-conducting precursor compound into a fibre or yarn material during or after the production thereof, wherein the at least one precursor compound is an inorganic metal phosphate compounds, a metal oxide or a spinel of the general formula AB2O4,(b) producing a textile from the fibre or yarn material,(c) irradiating the textile with electromagnetic radiation, preferably with laser light in the regions of the electrically conductive structures to be produced, with the release of metallisation seeds, and(d) electrical or non-electrical treatment of the textile with deposit of metals at the metallisation seeds with the production of conductive structures in the textile.
