A PROCESS FOR PRODUCING CRYPTOCRYSTALLINE MATAL WITH A RESINOUS COMPOSITION WHICH COMPRISES ADMIXING A NOBLE METAL SALT IN A PROPORTION OF 20% BY WEIGHT OF THE TOTAL COMPOSITION, A RESINOUS CONDENASTION PRODUCT OF AN ALDEHYDE WITH A MEMBER OF THR GROUP CONSISTING OF PHENOL, UREA AND MELAMINE, SAID CONDENSATION PRODUCT BEING CAPABLE OF UNDERGOING FURTHER POLYMERIZATION AND AN EXCESS OF THE ALDEHYDE IN A PROPORTION OF NOT MORE THAN 20% BY WEIGHT OF THE TOTAL COMPOSITION AND MOLDING THE SAID MIXTURE UNDER CONDITIONS OF ELEVATED TEMPERATURE IN THE RANGE OF 300 TO 330*F. AND PRESSURE OF FROM ABOUT 1500 TO 6000 P.S.I. FOR A PERIOD U TO 10 MINUTES SO AS TO PRODUCE A RIGID COMPOSITION IN WHICH SAID METAL SALT IS REDUCED TO CRYPTOCRYSTALLINE METAL PARTICLES BY SAID ALDEHYDE, THE AMOUNT OF METAL SALT IN A ALDEHYDE BEING SUCH AS TO HAVE THE CRYPTOCRYSTALLINE PARTICLES IMPART ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY TO THE MOLDED PRODUCT.
