TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a decorative film formed body, a manufacturing method for a decorative film formed body, a mounting method for a transfer base material, a satin-plated preparation, a container, a casing, and a vehicle interior/exterior member. More specifically, the present invention relates to a decorative formed body being a decorative formed product decorated with a vapor deposition film and being capable of exhibiting excellent metallic design presentation of satin plating with less color blur, a manufacturing method for such a decorative film formed body, a mounting method for a transfer base material, a satin-plated preparation using such a decorative film formed body, a container, a casing, and a vehicle interior/exterior member.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Hitherto, for example, in a field of automobile interior/exterior components, in order to exhibit luxurious presentation, metallic designs such as chromium plating and satin plating are adopted. The satin plating is a way of finishing a product into a matte state by applying nickel plating and thereafter performing buff polishing with use of a satiner abrasive. The satin plating exhibits a settled texture and is often used for interior components and emblems for vehicles.

However, related-art satin plating involves complicated processes and has significant color blur. Therefore, there has been proposed surface treatment other than plating, such as a metal appearance finishing method. For example, there has been an attempt to reproduce the same surface texture as the surface texture of satin plating by a method other than plating. Moreover, in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2016-160488, there is disclosed a method of performing satin-nickel plating with use of a plating bath containing a specified amine compound and a specified siloxane compound. Besides, in a technical field of film decoration, there has been an attempt to reproduce metallic design presentation of satin plating with use of a matte resin layer.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

However, when surface treatment other than the related-art plating is used, or when an attempt is made to reproduce a satin plating pattern with use of a related-art decorative film, metallic design presentation similar to that of the satin plating cannot be sufficiently expressed yet.

The present invention has been made in view of such related-art invention, and has an object to provide a decorative film formed body being capable of exhibiting excellent metallic design presentation of satin plating with less color blur through decoration with use of a vapor deposition film, a manufacturing method for a decorative film formed body, a mounting method for a transfer base material, a satin-plated preparation, a container, a casing, and a vehicle interior/exterior member.

As a result of extensive studies, the inventors of the present invention have found that the metallic design presentation of satin plating with less color blur can more accurately be reproduced in the following manner. In order to obtain characteristic dull metallic gloss of the satin plating pattern, in a film including an adhesive layer and a vapor deposition layer, the vapor deposition layer has recesses and projections formed on a surface thereof, and the adhesive layer includes scale-shaped fillers. Based on the findings described above, the inventors have completed the present invention (first invention). That is, a decorative film formed body, a manufacturing method for a decorative film formed body, a mounting method for a transfer base material, a satin-plated preparation, a container, a casing, and a vehicle interior/exterior member according to the present invention (first invention) for solving the problem described above mainly have the following configuration.
