Description

本発明は、プラスチック、金属、ガラス、ゴム、陶磁器、木材、竹、皮革、発泡スチロール等の基材の表面に銀鏡皮膜を形成する方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a method for forming a silver mirror film on the surface of a substrate such as plastic, metal, glass, rubber, ceramics, wood, bamboo, leather, and polystyrene foam.

自動車部品、屋内装飾品、釣具製品、家電製品、通信機器製品、仏具品、建築材等のプラスチック、金属、ガラス、ゴム、陶磁器、木材、竹、皮革、発泡スチロール等に使用される基材には、主として装飾を目的として、その表面に銀鏡皮膜を形成することがある。また銀鏡皮膜は電磁波を遮断する目的で、電磁波シールド品においても利用される場合がある。   For base materials used for automobile parts, interior decorations, fishing gear products, home appliances, communication equipment products, Buddhist accessories, building materials, plastics, metals, glass, rubber, ceramics, wood, bamboo, leather, foamed polystyrene, etc. A silver mirror film may be formed on the surface mainly for the purpose of decoration. Further, the silver mirror film is sometimes used in electromagnetic shielding products for the purpose of blocking electromagnetic waves.

このような基材から成る製品の銀鏡皮膜の形成は通常、以下の方法を用いることが知られている。最初に各種基材の製品の表面を銀鏡皮膜が形成されるに適した表面(以下、「銀鏡皮膜被形成表面」という)とするための前処理を実施する。これによって得られた清浄な銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に銀鏡反応により銀を析出させるために塩化第1スズ等を含有する活性化処理液を接触させ、第1スズイオンを触媒として担持させる。その後、活性化処理された該基材表面に銀鏡めっきを施すことによって銀鏡皮膜を形成する。銀鏡用めっき液は一般に硝酸銀及びアンモニアを含有する銀溶液とホルマリン、ブドウ糖、グリオキザール、ヒドラジン等の還元剤を含有する液の混合物から成る無電解めっき液を用いる。そして洗浄を繰り返した後、乾燥し前記銀めっき層の表面に保護層を形成する。   It is known that the following method is usually used to form a silver mirror film of a product comprising such a substrate. First, pretreatment is performed to make the surfaces of the products of the various substrates into a surface suitable for forming a silver mirror film (hereinafter referred to as “silver mirror film-formed surface”). In order to deposit silver by a silver mirror reaction, the activation treatment liquid containing stannous chloride or the like is brought into contact with the clean surface on which the silver mirror film is formed, thereby supporting stannous ions as a catalyst. Then, a silver mirror film is formed by performing silver mirror plating on the surface of the base material that has been activated. The silver mirror plating solution generally uses an electroless plating solution composed of a mixture of a silver solution containing silver nitrate and ammonia and a solution containing a reducing agent such as formalin, glucose, glyoxal, and hydrazine. And after repeating washing | cleaning, it dries and forms a protective layer on the surface of the said silver plating layer.

上記方法は、銀鏡皮膜と銀鏡皮膜被形成表面との間の接着性および耐久性に優れ、また作業性が良好な簡易な方法により優れた性能の銀鏡皮膜を有する製品を得ることが出来る方法として知られている。   The above method is a method capable of obtaining a product having a silver mirror coating with excellent performance by a simple method excellent in adhesion and durability between the silver mirror coating and the surface on which the silver mirror coating is formed and having good workability. Are known.

上記方法に用いられる活性化処理液は、無電解めっき液中で銀イオンを金属銀として析出させる為の触媒として働く第1スズ化合物を含有する水溶液である。しかし第1スズ化合物として例えば第1塩化スズを用いた場合、活性化処理液を数日間保存することにより塩化第1スズが水溶液中で水酸基(OH-)と反応して塩基性塩(Sn(Cl)OH)の白色沈殿が析出する。塩基性塩が析出すると活性化処理液中の第1スズイオン量が減少し銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対する親水性が低下し、その後銀鏡めっき処理を実施すると得られた銀鏡皮膜にシミ、クスミのように見えるムラが発生する。 The activation treatment solution used in the above method is an aqueous solution containing a stannous compound that acts as a catalyst for precipitating silver ions as metallic silver in the electroless plating solution. However, when, for example, stannous chloride is used as the stannous compound, stannous chloride reacts with a hydroxyl group (OH ) in an aqueous solution by storing the activation treatment solution for several days, so that a basic salt (Sn ( A white precipitate of Cl) OH) is deposited. When the basic salt is precipitated, the amount of stannous ions in the activation treatment solution decreases and the hydrophilicity of the surface of the silver mirror coating is reduced. After that, when the silver mirror plating treatment is performed, the resulting silver mirror coating is stained and stained. Visible unevenness occurs.

上述した活性化処理液の保存安定性の問題点を改善する手段として、例えば特開2003−13240号公報(特許文献1)には第1スズ化合物および塩酸を含有する液に酸素を吹き込む活性化処理液が、また特開2003−129249号公報(特許文献2)には第1スズ化合物を含有する液に一定量の第2スズ化合物を添加した活性化処理液が開示されている。しかしながらこれら公報記載の活性化処理液の保存安定性は十分満足できるものではなかった。また新たな問題として直後活性が十分でないことが判明した。   As means for improving the above-described storage stability problem of the activation treatment liquid, for example, JP-A-2003-13240 (Patent Document 1) discloses an activation in which oxygen is blown into a liquid containing a stannous compound and hydrochloric acid. JP-A-2003-129249 (Patent Document 2) discloses a treatment liquid in which a certain amount of a second tin compound is added to a liquid containing a stannous compound. However, the storage stability of the activation treatment solutions described in these publications is not fully satisfactory. As a new problem, it was found that the activity was not sufficient immediately.

活性化処理液の直後活性とは、活性化処理液作成直後の銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対して親水性を付与する活性度のことを意味する。従って従来の活性化処理液は液作成直後、いわゆる新液の状態では直後活性が不十分なため、満足できうる銀鏡皮膜を得るために、銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対して活性化処理を繰り返し行う必要があった。あるいは活性化処理液を作成した後、ある一定期間保存することで銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対する親水性が向上するのを待ち、活性化処理を行う必要があった。しかし保存期間が長すぎると第1スズ化合物の塩基性塩の生成に伴い銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対する親水性が低下し、新液状態の時と同様に満足できうる銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対する親水性が得られるまで活性化処理を繰り返し行う必要があり、更に最終的には第1スズ化合物の大半が沈殿し、活性化処理液としての効果が全く無くなってしまうものであった。
特開2003−013240号公報(第1頁〜第2頁) 特開2003−129249号公報(第1頁〜第2頁)
The activity immediately after the activation treatment liquid means an activity that imparts hydrophilicity to the surface on which the silver mirror film is formed immediately after the activation treatment liquid is formed. Accordingly, since the conventional activation treatment liquid is insufficient in activity immediately after the preparation of the liquid, that is, in the so-called new liquid state, the activation treatment is repeatedly performed on the surface on which the silver mirror film is formed in order to obtain a satisfactory silver mirror film. There was a need. Alternatively, after creating the activation treatment liquid, it was necessary to perform the activation treatment after waiting for the hydrophilicity to the surface on which the silver mirror film was formed to improve by storing for a certain period of time. However, if the storage period is too long, the hydrophilicity of the surface of the silver mirror coating will decrease with the formation of the basic salt of the stannous compound. It was necessary to repeatedly carry out the activation treatment until it was obtained. Finally, most of the stannous compound was precipitated, and the effect as an activation treatment solution was completely lost.

本発明が解決しようとする課題は、基材の表面に銀鏡皮膜を形成する方法において、活性化処理液の保存安定性が良好であり且つ、活性化処理液の作成直後から長期間にわたり安定して銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対する親水性を得ることが出来る活性化処理液を提供することにある。   The problem to be solved by the present invention is that, in the method of forming a silver mirror film on the surface of the substrate, the storage stability of the activation treatment liquid is good and stable for a long period of time immediately after the activation treatment liquid is created. Another object of the present invention is to provide an activation treatment liquid capable of obtaining hydrophilicity with respect to the surface on which the silver mirror film is formed.

基材の表面に銀鏡皮膜を形成する方法にあたり、前記基材の銀鏡皮膜被形成表面を活性化する活性化処理液が、第1スズ化合物と第2スズ化合物を含有し、第1スズ化合物と第2スズ化合物を合わせたスズ化合物の総モル量に対して第2スズ化合物が35乃至75モル%の範囲にあることを特徴とする活性化処理液。   In the method of forming a silver mirror film on the surface of the base material, the activation treatment liquid for activating the silver mirror film-formed surface of the base material contains a stannous compound and a second tin compound, An activation treatment liquid, wherein the second tin compound is in the range of 35 to 75 mol% with respect to the total molar amount of the tin compound combined with the second tin compound.

本発明によれば、活性化処理液の保存安定性が良好であり、また活性化処理液の作成直後から長期間にわたり良好かつ安定した銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対する親水性を得ることができる。   According to the present invention, the storage stability of the activation treatment liquid is good, and the hydrophilicity with respect to the surface on which the silver mirror film is to be formed can be obtained over a long period of time immediately after the activation treatment liquid is formed.

以下、本発明を詳細に説明する。本発明に用いる活性化処理液は、第1スズ化合物と第2スズ化合物を合わせたスズ化合物の総モル量に対して第2スズ化合物が35乃至75モル%の範囲にあることを特徴とする活性化処理液である。   Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail. The activation treatment liquid used in the present invention is characterized in that the second tin compound is in the range of 35 to 75 mol% with respect to the total molar amount of the tin compound including the first tin compound and the second tin compound. It is an activation treatment liquid.

本発明に用いる活性化処理液は第1スズ化合物と第2スズ化合物を含有する。活性化処理液に第1スズ化合物と第2スズ化合物用いることは、前記特許文献2にも記載されているが、本発明者は、第1スズ化合物と第2スズ化合物を活性化処理液に用いることにより活性化処理液の保存安定性を改善する効果の他に、従来からの活性化処理液の問題点であった活性化処理液の直後活性を改善できることを見いだした。活性化処理液の直後活性とは、従来から知られる活性化処理液の液作成直後に活性化処理液を用いて活性化処理を実施すると、銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対する親水性が十分でなく、得られた銀鏡皮膜にハジキ、スジ、シミ、クスミのように見えるムラが発生することがあったが、この液作成直後の銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対して親水性を付与する活性度のことを意味する。また液作成直後とは活性化処理液を作成後、おおよそ5時間以内に活性化処理液を用いた処理を実施するまでの時間である。   The activation treatment liquid used in the present invention contains a stannous compound and a stannic compound. Although the use of the stannous compound and the stannic compound in the activation treatment liquid is also described in Patent Document 2, the inventor used the stannous compound and the stannic compound as the activation treatment liquid. In addition to the effect of improving the storage stability of the activation treatment solution, it has been found that the activity immediately after the activation treatment solution, which has been a problem with conventional activation treatment solutions, can be improved. Immediately after activation of the activation treatment liquid, the activation treatment using the activation treatment liquid immediately after the preparation of the conventionally known activation treatment liquid, the hydrophilicity to the silver mirror coating surface is not sufficient, The resulting silver mirror film sometimes had irregularities that looked like repellency, streaks, stains, and scum, but the activity that imparts hydrophilicity to the surface of the silver mirror film formed immediately after the liquid was created. means. Further, “immediately after the preparation of the liquid” refers to the time until the treatment using the activation treatment liquid is carried out within about 5 hours after the activation treatment liquid is produced.

上記効果を得るための第1スズ化合物と第2スズ化合物の使用比率は、第1スズ化合物と第2スズ化合物を合わせたスズ化合物の総モル量に対して、第2スズ化合物が35乃至75モル%の範囲で用いられる。活性化処理液中の第2スズ化合物の使用量が、スズ化合物の総モル量に対して35モル%を超えると、活性化処理液の経時安定性と直後活性が著しく改善され、また活性化処理液中の第2スズ化合物の使用量が、スズ化合物の総モル量に対して75モル%を超えると、保存後の活性化処理液の活性度と活性化処理液の直後活性が低下する。従って本発明の第1スズ化合物と第2スズ化合物の使用比率は、35乃至75モル%であり、更に40乃至70モル%の範囲が好ましい。   The use ratio of the stannous compound and the second tin compound for obtaining the above effect is such that the second tin compound is 35 to 75 with respect to the total molar amount of the tin compound including the first tin compound and the second tin compound. Used in the range of mol%. When the amount of stannic compound used in the activation treatment liquid exceeds 35 mol% with respect to the total molar amount of the tin compound, the stability over time and the immediate activity of the activation treatment liquid are remarkably improved. When the amount of the stannic compound used in the treatment liquid exceeds 75 mol% with respect to the total molar amount of the tin compound, the activity of the activation treatment liquid after storage and the activity immediately after the activation treatment liquid are reduced. . Therefore, the use ratio of the stannous compound and the stannic compound of the present invention is 35 to 75 mol%, and more preferably 40 to 70 mol%.

本発明の活性化処理液に用いる第1スズ化合物と第2スズ化合物を合わせたスズ化合物の総モル量としては、活性化処理液の使用液1リットルあたり0.01モル〜0.4モル、より好ましくは0.02モル〜0.3モルである。また長期保存を目的として例えば2倍希釈して用いるに相当するスズ化合物を有する等の、いわゆる濃縮液として作成することもできる。   As the total molar amount of the tin compound including the first tin compound and the second tin compound used in the activation treatment liquid of the present invention, 0.01 mol to 0.4 mol per liter of the activation treatment liquid used, More preferably, it is 0.02 mol-0.3 mol. Further, for the purpose of long-term storage, for example, it can be prepared as a so-called concentrated liquid having, for example, a tin compound corresponding to use diluted 2 times.

本発明に用いる第1スズ化合物としては、塩化第1スズ、酸化第1スズ、硫酸第1スズ、およびこれらの混合物を用いることができる。また第2スズ化合物としては塩化第2スズ、酸化第2スズ、およびこれらの混合物を用いることができる。   As the stannous compound used in the present invention, stannous chloride, stannous oxide, stannous sulfate, and a mixture thereof can be used. As the stannic compound, stannic chloride, stannic oxide, and a mixture thereof can be used.

本発明の活性化処理液は、第1スズ化合物の塩基性塩の生成を回避するために酸性水溶液とすることが好ましく、塩酸が一般に用いられる。塩酸の使用量としては、活性化処理液の使用液1リットルあたり0.01モル〜0.5モル、より好ましくは0.02モル〜0.4モルの範囲で用いることができる。   The activation treatment liquid of the present invention is preferably an acidic aqueous solution in order to avoid the formation of a basic salt of a stannous compound, and hydrochloric acid is generally used. As the usage-amount of hydrochloric acid, it can be used in 0.01 mol-0.5 mol per liter of the use liquid of an activation process liquid, More preferably, it can be used in the range of 0.02 mol-0.4 mol.

次に、本発明の活性化処理液を使用する銀鏡皮膜方法の具体例について説明する。   Next, a specific example of the silver mirror coating method using the activation treatment liquid of the present invention will be described.

本発明において、銀鏡皮膜が形成される基材としては、金属、ABS(アクリロニトリル−ブタジエン−スチレン)樹脂等のプラスチック樹脂、ゴム、木材、皮革、ガラス板、陶磁器など、様々なものが使用できる。   In the present invention, various materials such as metal, plastic resin such as ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) resin, rubber, wood, leather, glass plate, ceramics can be used as the base material on which the silver mirror film is formed.

これらの基材は以下に述べる各処理工程に先立ち、前処理としてその表面を清浄化して銀鏡皮膜被形成表面を形成することが好ましい。すなわち、基材が、ABS(アクリロニトリル−ブタジエン−スチレン)樹脂等のプラスチック樹脂、ゴム、木材、皮革の場合には、表面の油、その他の汚れをイソプロピルアルコール、洗剤等の素材を傷めない前処理剤を用いて脱脂し、充分に乾燥させる。基材がガラスである場合には、エチルアルコールで脱脂する。基材が陶磁器である場合には、ガラスと同様の前処理でよいが、多孔質の場合には、上記のプラスチックと同様の前処理を行うことが好ましい。基材が金属である場合には、表面が油、錆び等で汚染されていることが多いので、十分に脱脂、脱錆した後、必要に応じてプラスチックと同様の前処理を行うことが好ましい。   Prior to each processing step described below, it is preferable to clean the surface of these base materials as a pretreatment to form a silver mirror coating surface. That is, when the base material is plastic resin such as ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) resin, rubber, wood, leather, pretreatment that does not damage the surface oil, other dirt such as isopropyl alcohol, detergent, etc. Degrease using an agent and dry thoroughly. When the substrate is glass, it is degreased with ethyl alcohol. When the base material is ceramic, pretreatment similar to that of glass may be performed, but when porous, it is preferable to perform pretreatment similar to the above plastic. When the base material is a metal, the surface is often contaminated with oil, rust, etc., so it is preferable to perform pretreatment similar to plastics as necessary after sufficient degreasing and derusting. .

更に、清浄化した後の基材の表面には、予め、アンダーコート層を設けておくことが好ましい。アンダーコート層としては、例えば特開2002−256454号公報や特開平10−309774号公報に記載されている如き、ポリエステル樹脂、アルキド樹脂、アクリル樹脂、2液硬化型ポリウレタン樹脂等からなるアンダーコート層、あるいはアルコキシチタニウムエステル並びにエポキシ基を有するシランカップリング剤及びエポキシ樹脂のうちの少なくとも一方を含有する塗料からなるアンダーコート層が挙げられる。このようにして、各基材表面に清浄な銀鏡皮膜被形成表面を形成することができる。   Furthermore, it is preferable to provide an undercoat layer in advance on the surface of the substrate after cleaning. As the undercoat layer, for example, as described in JP-A-2002-256454 and JP-A-10-309774, an undercoat layer made of a polyester resin, an alkyd resin, an acrylic resin, a two-component curable polyurethane resin, or the like. Or an undercoat layer made of a coating material containing at least one of an alkoxytitanium ester, an epoxy group-containing silane coupling agent, and an epoxy resin. In this way, a clean silver mirror film-formed surface can be formed on each substrate surface.

続いて、この清浄な銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対して、本発明の活性化処理液を用いて活性化処理を行う。前記活性化処理液を用いて処理する方法としては、前記活性化処理液中に銀鏡皮膜被形成表面を形成した基材を浸漬するか、または銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に本発明の活性化処理液をスプレー塗布することにより実施する。特にスプレー塗布は好適である。   Subsequently, an activation process is performed on the clean silver mirror film-formed surface using the activation process liquid of the present invention. As a method of processing using the activation treatment liquid, a substrate on which a silver mirror film-formed surface is formed is immersed in the activation treatment liquid, or the activation treatment liquid of the present invention is formed on the silver mirror film-formed surface. Is carried out by spray coating. Spray coating is particularly preferred.

次いで、本発明の活性化処理液による活性化処理工程で基材表面に余分に付着した活性化処理液を脱イオン水又は精製蒸留水で洗浄することが好ましい。この洗浄液には例えば特開平6−38860号公報に記載されたような界面活性剤を含んでいてもよい。   Next, it is preferable to wash the activation treatment liquid that has excessively adhered to the substrate surface in the activation treatment step with the activation treatment liquid of the present invention with deionized water or purified distilled water. This cleaning liquid may contain a surfactant as described in, for example, JP-A-6-38860.

上記の洗浄の後、塩化物を形成し得る金属塩化合物による処理を行う。前記金属として好ましいものは銀であり、特に硝酸銀が好適である。   After the washing, treatment with a metal salt compound capable of forming a chloride is performed. A preferable metal is silver, and silver nitrate is particularly preferable.

この処理工程は、上記金属塩化合物の水溶液に基材を浸漬するか、あるいは金属塩化合物の水溶液を基材表面にスプレー塗布することにより実施される。特に、スプレー塗布は好適である。   This treatment step is carried out by immersing the substrate in the aqueous solution of the metal salt compound or spray-coating the aqueous solution of the metal salt compound on the surface of the substrate. In particular, spray coating is preferred.

続いて、銀鏡用めっき液を使用する銀鏡反応処理の工程に進む。この工程では、例えば以下の銀鏡用めっき液を使用することにより、均一な光沢を有し、しかも、特に、ラッカーもしくは二液反応型塗料を塗布したアンダーコート層を有する銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に対する強固な密着性を発現することができる。   Then, it progresses to the process of the silver mirror reaction process which uses the plating solution for silver mirrors. In this step, for example, by using the following silver mirror plating solution, it has a uniform gloss and, in particular, has a strong surface with respect to a silver mirror coating surface having an undercoat layer coated with lacquer or a two-component reactive paint. Can exhibit excellent adhesion.

銀鏡用めっき液は、例えば以下のようにして調製される。すなわち、まず、水、好適には脱イオン水1リットルに対して、硝酸銀1〜20g、好ましくは3〜15gと、28%アンモニア水溶液2〜150g、好ましくは5〜75gと、例えば、モノエタノールアミン、トリス(ヒドロキシメチル)アミノメタン、2−アミノ−2−ヒドロキシメチル−1,3−プロパンジオール、1−アミノ−2−プロパノール、2−アミノ−1−プロパノール、ジエタノールアミン、ジイソプロパノールアミン、トリエタノールアミン、トリイソプロパノールアミン等のアミノアルコール化合物、及び、例えば、グリシン、アラニン、グリシンナトリウム等のアミノ酸又はその塩よりなる群から選ばれる少なくとも1つの化合物0〜50g、好ましくは0〜10gとを含有する銀溶液(A)を調製する。   The plating solution for silver mirror is prepared as follows, for example. That is, first, 1 to 20 g, preferably 3 to 15 g of silver nitrate, 2 to 150 g of 28% aqueous ammonia solution, preferably 5 to 75 g, for example, monoethanolamine, with respect to 1 liter of water, suitably deionized water. , Tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane, 2-amino-2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-propanediol, 1-amino-2-propanol, 2-amino-1-propanol, diethanolamine, diisopropanolamine, triethanolamine Silver containing at least one compound selected from the group consisting of amino alcohol compounds such as triisopropanolamine, and amino acids such as glycine, alanine, sodium glycine or salts thereof, and preferably 0 to 10 g.

To do.

また、銀溶液(A)及び/又は還元溶液(B)へのアミノアルコール化合物及びアミノ酸又はその塩よりなる群から選ばれる少なくとも1つの化合物の配合量は、これらの液を混合して得られるめっき液において、めっき液1リットル当たり、合計量が1〜50g、好ましくは3〜10gとなるように調整することが好ましい。   Moreover, the compounding quantity of the at least 1 compound chosen from the group which consists of an amino alcohol compound and an amino acid, or its salt to a silver solution (A) and / or a reduction | restoration solution (B) is plating obtained by mixing these liquids In the solution, the total amount is preferably adjusted to 1 to 50 g, preferably 3 to 10 g per liter of the plating solution.

Processing is performed to form a silver mirror film. After the treatment, it is washed with deionized water or purified distilled water and dried sufficiently.

本発明においては、更に、この銀鏡皮膜上にトップコート層として、公知のクリヤーコーティングを施すことによって、耐密着性、耐食性、耐摩耗性、耐変色性等を一段と向上することができる。   In the present invention, adhesion resistance, corrosion resistance, abrasion resistance, discoloration resistance and the like can be further improved by applying a known clear coating as a top coat layer on the silver mirror film.

活性化処理液10は次のようにして作成した。0.39モルの濃硫酸中に0.053モルの硫酸第1スズを添加し攪拌した。この液を水500mlへ少しずつ攪拌しながら添加した。この後塩酸を0.07モル、塩化第2スズを0.053モル添加、攪拌し水を加えて1Lとした。   The activation treatment liquid 10 was prepared as follows. 0.053 mol stannous sulfate was added to 0.39 mol concentrated sulfuric acid and stirred. This solution was added to 500 ml of water little by little with stirring. Thereafter, 0.07 mol of hydrochloric acid and 0.053 mol of stannic chloride were added, stirred, and water was added to make 1 L.

活性化処理液11は、表1中に記載の活性化処理液3の各成分を2倍量とした活性化処理液の濃縮液を作成した。   For the activation treatment liquid 11, a concentrated solution of the activation treatment liquid was prepared in which each component of the activation treatment liquid 3 described in Table 1 was doubled.

活性化処理液の保存安定性は以下に記す方法で評価した。前記活性化処理液1〜12それぞれを500ml準備し、内容量が約1リットルとして市販されているポリエチレン試薬瓶中へ入れ密閉した。これを設定温度50℃での強制加温を実施し、その後の活性化処理液の沈殿発生状況および活性化処理液の活性度を調べ、表2に記載した。活性化処理液の沈殿発生状況は加温後の活性化処理液を観察し、4段階で評価した。○は沈殿がない黄色の活性化処理液、○△は沈殿はないがやや白濁した活性化処理液、△は沈殿はないが白濁した活性化処理液、×は沈殿が発生した活性化処理液である。   The storage stability of the activation treatment liquid was evaluated by the method described below. 500 ml of each of the activation treatment solutions 1 to 12 was prepared, and sealed in a commercially available polyethylene reagent bottle having an internal volume of about 1 liter. This was subjected to forced heating at a set temperature of 50 ° C., and then the state of precipitation of the activation treatment liquid and the activity of the activation treatment liquid were examined and are listed in Table 2. The precipitation state of the activation treatment liquid was evaluated in four stages by observing the activation treatment liquid after heating. ○ is a yellow activation treatment solution with no precipitation, ○ △ is an activation treatment solution with no precipitation but slightly cloudy, Δ is an activation treatment solution with no precipitation but white turbidity, and × is an activation treatment solution with precipitation. It is.

前記方法で得られた基材の清純な銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に活性化処理液1〜11をスプレーガンで吹き付けて活性化処理を行い、精製水にて洗浄した。   The activation treatment liquids 1 to 11 were sprayed with a spray gun onto the pure silver mirror film-formed surface of the substrate obtained by the above method, and washed with purified water.

活性化処理液の活性度は以下に記す方法で評価した。銀鏡皮膜被形成表面(縦横それぞれ10cm角)に対しハンドスプレーを用いて(一回の吐出量が約1ml)上記活性化処理液を噴霧する。銀鏡皮膜は以下に記載の処理を施された後に形成されるが、ハジキ、スジ、シミ、クスミのように見えるムラの発生がない良好な鏡面の銀鏡皮膜を得るために必要な活性化処理液の噴霧回数によって評価し表2中に記載した。また表2中の直後活性とは、活性化処理液の液作成直後の活性度を表し、前記活性度と同様の方法で評価した。ただし活性化処理液12は濃縮液状態で強制加温を実施し、活性化処理を実施するときに希釈し、この時の活性度を評価した。   The activity of the activation treatment solution was evaluated by the method described below. The activation treatment solution is sprayed onto the surface on which the silver mirror film is to be formed (10 cm square each in length and width) using a hand spray (a single discharge amount is about 1 ml). The silver mirror film is formed after the treatment described below, but the activation treatment solution is necessary to obtain a silver mirror film with a good mirror surface that does not cause unevenness that looks like repellent, streaks, stains, and scum. The results are shown in Table 2. Moreover, the immediate activity in Table 2 represents the activity immediately after the preparation of the activation treatment liquid, and was evaluated by the same method as the activity. However, the activation treatment liquid 12 was subjected to forced heating in a concentrated state, diluted when carrying out the activation treatment, and the activity at this time was evaluated.

続いて、脱イオン水1リットルに塩化物を形成し得る金属塩化合物としての硝酸銀10gを1リットルの水に溶解した水溶液(a)をスプレーガンで吹き付けて処理した。   Subsequently, an aqueous solution (a) prepared by dissolving 10 g of silver nitrate as a metal salt compound capable of forming a chloride in 1 liter of deionized water in 1 liter of water was sprayed with a spray gun.

銀鏡用めっき液は、次のようにして調製した。先ず、脱イオン水1リットルに硝酸銀20gを溶解して(1)液とし、別に、脱イオン水1リットルに28%アンモニア水溶液100g、モノエタノールアミン5gを溶解して(2)液とし、使用前に、これら(1)液及び(2)液を1対1で混合してアンモニア性銀溶液(A)とした。次に、脱イオン水1リットルに硫酸ヒドラジン10g、モノエタノールアミン5g及び水酸化ナトリウム10gを溶解して還元溶液(B)とした。   The silver mirror plating solution was prepared as follows. First, 20 g of silver nitrate is dissolved in 1 liter of deionized water to obtain a liquid (1). Separately, 100 g of 28% ammonia aqueous solution and 5 g of monoethanolamine are dissolved in 1 liter of deionized water to obtain a liquid (2). Furthermore, these (1) liquid and (2) liquid were mixed 1: 1 to make an ammoniacal silver solution (A). Next, 10 g of hydrazine sulfate, 5 g of monoethanolamine and 10 g of sodium hydroxide were dissolved in 1 liter of deionized water to obtain a reducing solution (B).

このように調製した銀溶液(A)と還元溶液(B)とを、上記の銀鏡皮膜被形成表面に、2頭スプレーガンを使用して同時に吹き付けて銀鏡を形成させ、精製水にて洗浄した。このスプレーガンは、銀溶液と還元溶液とを同時に被処理面に到達させ、瞬時に銀イオンが還元されて銀鏡皮膜を形成することを可能にする。   The silver solution (A) and the reducing solution (B) thus prepared were simultaneously sprayed onto the above-described silver mirror coating surface using a two-head spray gun to form a silver mirror and washed with purified water. . This spray gun allows a silver solution and a reducing solution to simultaneously reach the surface to be treated, and allows silver ions to be instantaneously reduced to form a silver mirror film.

最後に銀鏡皮膜表面にトップコート剤として藤倉化成株式会社製の「PTC−02」をスプレー塗布し、約70℃の乾燥炉内で70分乾燥させることによりトップコート層を形成させた。   Finally, “PTC-02” manufactured by Fujikura Kasei Co., Ltd. was spray-coated on the surface of the silver mirror film and dried in an oven at about 70 ° C. for 70 minutes to form a topcoat layer.
