Method of producing metal-ceramic composite material having metallic luster

摘要

A method of producing a metal-ceramic composite material having a metallic luster. This method involves subjecting a cured product obtained by curing a curable silicone composition containing a metal filler to heating under a non-oxidizing atmosphere, at a temperature that is within a range from 400 to 1,500° C. and is less than the melting point of the metal filler. Using this method, a metal-ceramic composite material that has a shape and dimensions that meet the required specifications with a high degree of precision can be produced with comparative ease.
