This specification relates to a decoration member including: a substrate; a pattern layer comprising two or more unit pattern provided on one surface of the substrate; and an inorganic layer formed on the pattern layer, in which the inorganic layer includes a region in which a thickness t(x) of the inorganic layer formed on each unit pattern increases in a direction x in which the unit patterns are arranged.

A composite material structure includes a first metal member and a second metal member bonding to the first metal member. A bonding surface is formed therebetween. A first hole is through the first metal member. A circular bonding line is formed at a junction of a wall of the first hole and the bonding surface. A sleeve protrudes from the second metal member into the first hole, and covers the bonding line. A groove indents from the first metal member. The groove has a bottom surface located in the same plane with a top surface of the sleeve. A processing method of the composite material structure is also provided. The sleeve covers the bonding line between the first metal member and the second metal member, which allows the composite material structure to provide an improved sealing performance.

The present disclosure relates to a decoration member comprising: a color expression layer comprising a light reflection layer and a light absorption layer provided on the light reflection layer; and a substrate provided on one surface of the color expression layer, in which the light absorption layer comprises a copper nickel oxide (Cu.sub.aNi.sub.bO.sub.x).

A CFRP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to or a CFRTP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to is prepared by joining an Al alloy sheet with a CFRP material or a CFRTP material by adhesion or by injection molding. The surface of this Al alloy sheet and a surface of metal material such as Ti, etc., are subjected to chemical treatment. After this chemical treatment, the CFRP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to or the CFRTP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to and the metal material are inserted into a metallic mold for injection molding so as to have a gap therebetween. High crystalline thermoplastic resin is injected into this gap to join the metal material with the Al alloy sheet, thus obtaining a laminated composite.

The disclosed relates to a decoration element and a method for preparing the decoration element. The decoration element has dichroism expressing different colors depending on a viewing direction, and has improved visibility of the dichroism.

Provided is a titanium cast product made of commercially pure titanium, the titanium cast product being produced by electron-beam remelting or plasma arc melting, comprising: a melted and resolidified layer in a range of 1 mm or more in depth at a surface serving as a surface to be rolled, the melted and resolidified layer being obtained by adding one or more kinds of stabilizer elements to the surface and melting and resolidifying the surface. An average value of stabilizer element(s) concentration in a range of within 1 mm in depth is higher than stabilizer element(s) concentration in a base material by, in mass %, equal to or more than 0.08 mass % and equal to or less than 1.50 mass %. As the material containing the stabilizer element, powder, a chip, wire, or foil is used. As means for melting a surface layer, electron-beam heating and plasma arc heating are used.

A method for making a metal-and-resin composite, including: providing a metal substrate made of stainless steel; forming a plurality of nano pores on a surface of the metal substrate by chemical etching the metal substrate; forming an intermediate layer on the metal substrate by dipping the metal substrate in a coupling agent solution, the intermediate layer filling at least portion of each nano pore; and forming a resin member by placing the metal substrate in a mold and molding molten resin on a surface of the intermediate layer, the resin member covering and bonding with the intermediate layer, treating the metal substrate with a coupling solution having a silane compound coupling agent to make the intermediate layer.

A method and apparatus for forming a sandwich structure is presented. A sandwich structure comprises a metallic core layer and a thermoplastic layer on a first side of the metallic core layer. The thermoplastic layer is consolidated against the first side of the metallic core layer.

A composite structure having at least a first partial surface of a structure and/or of a workpiece and/or of a layer comprising titanium and/or a titanium alloy and/or NiTi, a polymer which is arranged at least partially or in sections on the first partial surface of the first structure and/or of the workpiece and/or of the layer, a common anchoring layer, wherein the polymer is bonded in the contact region to the titanium and/or to the titanium alloy and/or NiTi at least partially or in sections or in the region of the first partial surface, completely or entirely via the common anchoring layer. Furthermore, the invention relates to an electrochemical etching method for producing undercut structures on surfaces of titanium and/or titanium alloys and/or NiTi for mechanical coupling of a polymer to produce a composite structure.

A CFRP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to or a CFRTP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to is prepared by joining an Al alloy sheet with a CFRP material or a CFRTP material by adhesion or by injection molding. The surface of this Al alloy sheet and a surface of metal material such as Ti, etc., are subjected to chemical treatment. After this chemical treatment, the CFRP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to or the CFRTP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to and the metal material are inserted into a metallic mold for injection molding so as to have a gap therebetween. High crystalline thermoplastic resin is injected into this gap to join the metal material with the Al alloy sheet, thus obtaining a laminated composite.
