Definitions

  • This invention relates to a plastic mirror and a manufacturing method therefor, and is particularly concerned with a mirror made of plastic such as acrylic resin (polymethylmethaacrylate, methaacrylic resin, or PMMA), on which silver is electrolessly plated, and to a manufacturing method thereof.
  • the plastic may be acrylic resin whose surface has been activated by chemical method, such as coating of surface-active agent and/or adsorption of metal of palladium, and/or has been hardened by coating of hardener such as silica sol, silane coupling agent or fluorosilicic acid.
  • This invention provides mirrors which is more lightweight than existing glass mirror and is not easily damaged physically, and therefore is very safe to be earthquake proof and also less expensive comparing to existing glass mirror.
  • This invention also provides mirrors that have higher reflectivity compared with plastic mirror of aluminum vapor deposition. Through these advantages, this invention contributes to the human life in the area of construction, cosmetics, electronics and automobile industry.
  • glass mirror is commonly known to have the highest light reflectivity.
  • Glass mirror is manufactured by electroless silver plating where silver thin film is formed or deposited on one side of transparent glass substrate through electroless silver-mirror reaction that reduces silver plating solution containing ammoniacal silver nitrate with glucose.
  • the glass mirror made through such a process has always a risk to be broken and to hurt the human body, therefore intensive caution is required to take care of it.
  • a glass mirror can hardly be thin, for example less than 80 mil thickness because of difficulty of manufacturing and handling, therefore it requires to have certain thickness such as 120 mil.
  • weight of mirror is significantly increased so that transportation and handling thereof become cumbersome; the best attention must be given to transportation and handling of glass mirror.
  • the plastic mirror manufactured by aluminum vapor deposition is inferior to glass mirror manufactured by electroless silver plating in light reflectivity, and therefore the plastic mirror looks dark. Further, the plastic mirror manufactured by aluminum vapor deposition tends to have many pin holes, so people feels that it is mirror of poor quality. Therefore the plastic mirror manufactured by aluminum vapor deposition is used as reflector rather than as mirror in a room. As vapor deposition requires vacuum system, plastic mirror made by aluminum vapor deposition is more expensive in respect with manufacturing cost than glass mirror made by electroless silver plating.
  • An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems and provide a plastic mirror which can be easily manufactured at low cost and is light, safe and highly reflective, and a method for manufacturing it.
  • an improved plastic mirror comprising plastic substance, surface-active agent coated onto the surface of said plastic substance and a silver thin layer which is deposited on said surface- active agent coated surface by electroless silver plating.
  • a method for manufacturing a plastic mirror which comprising a step of depositing silver layer onto the surface of plastic substance after surface-active agent is applied onto the said plastic substance.
  • the surface of plastic substance may be activated prior to coating the surface-active agent.
  • the color of the plastic substance can be transparence, colored transparence, opalescence, glassy sky-blue transparence.
  • a plastic substance having treated surface may be used.
  • the surface treatment of plastic substance is performed by etching, blowing plasma jet, silica coating and/or low reflection coating.
  • hardener is coated on the plastic substance to provide the treated surface.
  • the plastic substance can be formed to a plate, substrate or film or any topological derivative such as parabolic, curved, bent, dimpled, bumped, waved, saw-edged, notched or swelling shape.
  • the inventors had tried to make a plastic mirror having high reflectivity by electroless silver plating, however it had been unsuccessful. Because the surface of the plastic mirror can not be uniformly wetted over with plating solution, it was extremely difficult to uniformly plate the surface of plastic substance. Thus, the inventors had failed to manufacture a plastic mirror that is highly reflective.
  • a silver thin layer is deposited by electroless sliver plating method after surface-active agent is coated.
  • Plastic mirror manufactured by this method has high reflectivity and high quality which is the same level of glass mirror.
  • the inventors think the cause making it possible to realize the high quality mirror as follows.
  • Coating aqueous solution containing surface-active agent changes hydrophobic surface of plastic to hydrophilic surface.
  • Surface-active agent contains hydrophilic group and hydrophobic group in a single molecule. Therefore, surface-active agent sticks to the plastic surface which is hydrophobic at the hydrophobic group of said surface-active agent. This results that the hydrophilic group of surface-active agent is positioned out side of surface of said plastic substance. Under this condition, because the hydrophilic group of surface-active agent spreads the aqueous solution on the surface of plastic substance, the aqueous solution will spread all over the surface of plastic without repelling.
  • the concentration of the surface- active agent in the aqueous solution which is to be coated on the surface of plastic substance shall be as low as possible. Therefore if the aqueous solution contains certain amount of surface-active agent which makes it possible that silver plating solution will be spread uniformly and at the same time not disturbing silver mirror reaction, then uniform silver layer can be deposited.
  • plastic substance in the process according to the invention, that is, depositing a silver plating layer on the surface of plastic substance by electroless mirror silver reaction reducing ammoniacal silver nitrate with glucose, if plastic substance is c to have hardener coating, the plastic substance becomes easy to be processed by ammoniacal silver nitrate solution and the silver adheres strongly on the surface of the hardener-coated surface of the plastic substance when complex ion of silver in ammoniacal silver nitrate is reduced with glucose.
  • the hardener contains silane coupling and silica sol.
  • Silica(Si ⁇ 2) is the main component of glass and therefore, the hardener-coated surface of plastic becomes similar to the surface of glass. Therefore when silver complex in ammonium silver nitrate is reduced with glucose, deposition of silver easily takes place on the surface of plastic and can adhere strongly to the surface of the plastic substance.
  • electroless silver plating becomes to be caused on the surface of plastic easily.
  • it is activation treatment by coating of silica or adsorption of palladium metal, etching treatment by chromic acid mixture, plasma treatment, low reflection coating.
  • the color of plastic resin should not be necessarily transparent, but also colored transparent, smoke, opalescent or glass sky blue transparent. Colored part is all over the plastic resin, so that the surface is not affected by the coloring. Therefore, a silver layer deposited on the surface of the colored plastic is in good condition just like that on the transparent plastic.
  • the plastic mirror manufactured on transparent resin by electroless silver plating has an impression to be slightly yellow comparing to glass mirror, because glass has slightly color of green.
  • plastic having the similar color of glass it is possible to manufacture a plastic mirror that looks like glass mirror in tone of color can be manufactured. Furthermore, in case of a plastic mirror smoked with slightly various color, image in mirror does not look like reality, thus it can create calm. Plastic can be easily dyed comparing to glass. The invention makes it possible to manufacture new type of color mirror much easier.
  • Plastic can be formed in various shape much easier than glass. Mirror, shaped not plane, such as cylindrical, parabolic shaped, can hardly made by vapor deposition.
  • Wet silver plating solution can be applied to any shape; it dose not depend on the shape of plastic to be processed. In case of using the wet silver * plating solution the inside of parabolic shaped plastic substance can be easily plated by silver, which is impossible by vapor deposition methodology.
