[Problem]

To provide a laminate body in which a resin base member and a metal deposition film are brought into firmly close contact with each other.

[Solution]

The laminate body manufacturing method includes a desorption step S10, an introduction step S20, a deposition step S30, and a coating step S40. In the desorption step S10, a hydrophobic surface of resin is irradiated with plasma to desorb at least some of the atoms constituting the resin from the surface. In the introduction step S20, the surface of the resin subjected to the desorption step S10 is irradiated with hydroxyl radicals to introduce a hydroxyl group onto the surface of the resin. In the deposition step S30, a metal film is deposited on the surface of the resin subjected to the introduction step S20. In the coating step S40, the surface of the metal film is coated with a metal layer formed of the same metal as the metal forming the metal film.

A coating material composition include a hydroxyl group-containing acrylic resin, a fluororesin, and light diffusive particles, and the hydroxyl group-containing acrylic resin has a weight-average molecular weight in a range of 10,000 to 30,000 and a hydroxyl value in a range of 14 to 70, wherein a mass ratio of the fluororesin to the hydroxyl group-containing acrylic resin (the fluororesin/the hydroxyl group-containing acrylic resin) is in a range of 5/95 to 50/50. The coating material composition can provide the light diffusing properties capable of uniformly diffusing light while effectively masking a light source image.

The invention relates to a method for producing a trim element for vehicles which has a genuine carbon appearance, comprising a carbon fiber layer which is arranged on an exposed side of the trim element and is visible from the outside, and which is made of a fiber structure composed of prefabricated carbon fibers with interstices, with the method comprising at least the process step of wet impregnating the prefabricated carbon fiber layer with an aqueous polymer dispersion based on polyurethane, acrylate or polyvinyl acetate or a mixture thereof, so that the polymer dispersion penetrates at least partially into the carbon fiber layer, increasing the suitability thereof for penetration of a coating into the interstices of the fiber structure of the carbon layer.

The present disclosure provides methods of improving adhesion of a non-di-(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to an acrylic-based polymer or an ABS-based polymer.
