Abstract
A process for producing an electrolessly plated molded article, which includes molding a resin composition made of a thermoplastic resin having a specific Izod impact strength and a Rockwell surface hardness and an inorganic filler, then treating the surface of the molded article with air blast using an abrasive having a sharp granular shape, and then conducting catalyst coating, activation treatment and electroless plating. It has been possible to apply the electroless plating with a high adhesion strength to the molded article of the thermoplastic resin composition without conducting the chemical etching treatment.
