Abstract

A high-quality silver mirror coating technology capable of offering various colors for the decoration of molding items is desirable. We have developed both chemical reagents and procedures for improving the silver mirror coating layers. Treatment A with a sodium thiosulfate aqueous solution is a cleaning process for the silver layers. Treatment B with a water-based solution of silane coupling agent is a process for improving the adhesion property of mirror coating layers. Both treatments improve the durability of the silver mirror coating.
