TRANSPARENT CONDUCTIVE FILM AND ITS MANUFACTURING METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a transparent conductive film provided with both high transparency and conductivity while having less degree of reflection and metallic luster, and a manufacturing method capable of easily and inexpensively manufacturing the transparent conductive film without requiring a complicated process. SOLUTION: The transparent conductive film composed of a metallic ultrafine particle catalyst layer formed into a prescribed pattern on a transparent base substance and a metallic layer formed on the metallic ultrafine particle catalyst layer is structured. In the manufacturing method for the transparent conductive film, pattern printing is applied on the transparent base substance by paste containing electroless plating catalyst, and electroless plating treatment is applied on the pattern-printed electroless plating catalyst, in order to form a transparent conductive metallic layer only on a pattern-printed part.
