Laminate having chromatic color and metallic luster, and process for producing the same

A method of preparing a chromatic metalescent laminate comprising a first resin layer containing a dye, a metallic film and a second resin layer laminated in that order,

• said metallic film containing the dye which has migrated from the first resin layer,
• said laminate having chromatic metallic luster at least on its second resin layer side, and
• a color difference between said second resin layer side and a second resin layer side of a standard specimen being not less than 0.8 on the migration of said dye into said metallic film, or said metallic film and said second resin layer,
• wherein said laminate is prepared by:
• preparing said first resin layer by kneading together a polymer or mixture of polymers and a pigment, to form a mixture, extruding the kneaded and molding the extruded mixture containing the pigment into a layer,
• forming said metal layer or layers on said first resin layer by vapor deposition, ion plating, sputtering, chemical vapor deposition, plating or as a film or metal foil, and
• forming said second resin layer, laminating said layers together;
• said chromatic metalescent laminate produced by a process comprising heating the first resin layer containing a dye and the second resin layer having a metallic film formed on at least one side thereof, thereby cementing together said first and second resin layers via the metallic film so that the first resin layer faces the metallic film, while causing part of said dye to migrate from the first resin layer through the metallic film into the second resin layer.
