## Abstract

A resin molded article wherein a surface of a norbornene-based crosslinked polymer comprising at least one member selected from the group consisting of dicyclopentadiene-based monomer units, tetracyclododecene-based monomer units, and tricyclopentadiene-based monomer units in an amount of 50% by mass or more is coated with a polyamide-imide layer, and a method for producing the same. Since the resin molded article of the present invention has highly excellent heat resistance and durability, the resin molded article can be suitably used in applications that require heat resistance such as engine cover applications for automobiles and the like, and electric insulation applications.
