HEAT FORMED BODY HAVING PARTLY METALLIC LUSTER

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize a heat-forming body, which has an enough partly metallic luster and a surface having no uneven surface by a method wherein this body consists of an inside printing layer, which is laminated onto one side of a resin sheet and includes pigment prepared by covering inorganic compound particles with titanium oxide, and an outside printing layer, the total ray transmittance of which is less than a specified ratio. SOLUTION: A heat-forming body 1 having a metallic luster locally is produced in a thin box shape by heat-forming a transparent thermoplastic resin 5 sheet, on one side of which a printing layer 2 is formed. Since the resin 5 is transparent, a local metallic luster is recognized through the resin 5 from the opposite side of the printing layer 2 or from a visual range side. The printing layer 2 consists of an inside printing layer 3 made of a composition including pigment prepared by covering flake-like or scale-like inorganic compound particles with titanium oxide and an outside printing layer 4, which is laminated onto the surface of the inside printing layer 3 and the total ray transmittance of which is 15% or less. At the inorganic compound particle, mica, talc, kaolinite or the like is preferable.
