WATER-REPELLENT COATING CLAD ARTICLE AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to a water-repellent film coated article comprising a base material and a water-repellent film formed on a surface of the base material, wherein the water-repellent film is made mainly of silicon oxide and has an arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) of more than 0.5 nm but not more than 3.0 nm (0.5 nm < Ra ‰ 3.0 nm) as measured on a surface thereof. The water-repellent film coated article is excellent in water repellency and durability, and exhibits an excellent wiper operating characteristic on the surface thereof to thereby prevent occurrence of judder.
