Touch panel conductive member and method for producing touch panel conductive member

Abstract

Provided are a touch panel conductive member intended to achieve both the reduction in electrical resistance of metal thin wires and bendability, and a method for producing same. The touch panel conductive member includes a transparent insulating substrate, an undercoat layer disposed thereon, first metal thin wires disposed on the undercoat layer, and a transparent insulating layer covering the first metal thin wires. The first metal thin wires have a thickness of 350 to 1000 nm. When a sectional image of the touch panel conductive member in a direction orthogonal to a direction in which the first metal thin wires extend is taken at ten positions and one of the first metal thin wires is observed at each of the ten positions, a void between a side surface of the one of the first metal thin wires and the transparent insulating layer is observed at six or more positions.
