This manufacturing method of a metal component enables precision processing of a corner portion, and the radius of curvature of a cog tip of a gear and the like can be made smaller than before. The manufacturing method of a metal component includes: (a) forming a mask film having, in plan view, a first side, a second side, and an extension portion that extends from a region between the first side and the second side on a metal film; and (b) forming a corner portion having, in plan view, a third side and a fourth side by etching the metal film.

According to one embodiment, a method of manufacturing a transparent conductor is provided. In the method, a silver nanowire layer including a plurality of silver nanowires and having openings is formed on a graphene film supported by a copper support. Then, a transparent resin layer insoluble in a copper-etching solution is formed on the silver nanowire layer such that the transparent resin layer contacts the graphene film through the openings. The copper support is then brought into contact with the non-acidic copper-etching solution to remove the copper support, thereby exposing the graphene film.

Crystal plane orientation enrichment compounds are applied to copper to modify copper grain orientation distribution to the favorable crystal plain orientation to enhance copper electroplating. Electroplating copper on the modified copper enables faster and selective electroplating.

Methods and composition sets for forming etch-resist masks on a metallic surface are provided. The method may include depositing a first aqueous composition comprising a first reactive component onto a metallic layer of a substrate; depositing a second aqueous composition comprising a second reactive component on selected portions of the deposited first aqueous composition to form, from a chemical reaction between the first reactive component and the second reactive component, a bi-component material mask in a pattern to protect selected regions of the metallic layer; and depositing an etch solution to remove the metallic layer in regions not protected by the bi-component material mask.
