Reaction Steps

Cobalt 2-ethylhexanoate was diluted with a solvent in a weight ratio of ethanol:acetylacetone=100:10 to a solid content of 5 wt % as calculated as oxide (solution J) Solution A1, solution C1, solution H and solution J were mixed in a weight ratio of solution A1 :solution C1 :solution H:solution J=40:15:30:15, and heat treatment was conducted at 40° C. for 20 minutes. Then, the solution was diluted with a solvent in a mixed solvent in a weight ratio of water:ethanol:propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate:IPA:diacetone alcohol=5.3:22.5:38:23:10 to a solid content of 1.2 wt % to obtain a coating solution for a colored antistatic film.
