Abstract: Provided is a method for manufacturing a circuit board including: (a) preparing a mixture of a metal powder, an anti-sintering agent, and an activator; (b) immersing a dielectric substrate in the mixture; (c) forming a metal-containing layer on the surface of the dielectric substrate by heating the mixture under an inert atmosphere or under a reducing atmosphere; (d) forming a first metal layer on the metal-containing layer by electroless plating and forming a second metal layer thereon by electroplating; and (e) forming a metal pattern on the dielectric substrate, wherein the first metal layer includes Cu, Ni, Co, Au, Pd, or an alloy thereof, the second metal layer includes Cu, Ni, Fe, Co, Cr, Zn, Au, Ag, Pt, Pd, Rh, or an alloy thereof, and the method further includes performing heat treatment at least once after step (c).

Abstract: According to one aspect of the present invention, a non-metal member having a colored surface is provided. The non-metal member having a colored surface includes a non-metal substrate; a metal coating layer disposed on the non-metal substrate; a light-transmissive dielectric layer disposed on the metal coating layer; and a color pattern structure disposed on the light-transmissive dielectric layer.

Abstract: Provided is a high-durability coloring metal member. The high-durability coloring metal member includes a metal substrate, a dielectric layer provided on the metal substrate, and an oxynitride compound layer provided on the dielectric layer. The metal member is capable of expressing vivid and various colors with a color protection layer applied on the surface of the metal member.

Abstract: Provided is a coloring pattern structure. The coloring pattern structure includes: a substrate; a light-transmitting dielectric layer formed on at least one surface of the substrate; and a composite material layer disposed on an upper surface of the light-transmitting dielectric layer and formed of a metal and a first material not having a thermodynamic solid solubility in the metal, wherein the metal included in the composite material layer has a pattern coated only on portions of the upper surface of the light-transmitting dielectric layer, and the first material is coated on the remaining area where the metal is not coated.
