Housing, method for manufacturing housing, and electronic device comprising same
According to various embodiments, a method for manufacturing a metal housing can be provided, comprising: a step of forming a metal base made of a metal material; a step of pretreating the surface of the metal base such that the surface has a predetermined gloss and flatness; an anodizing step of forming a predetermined oxide film on the flat surface of the metal base; a step of coloring the oxide film by using a colorant having a desired color; a sealing step for maintaining the performance and characteristics of the colorant on the colored oxide film; and a step of laminating at least one deposition layer on the upper part of the sealed oxide film.
1. A metal housing comprising:
a metal preform;
an oxide film layer disposed, through an anodizing process, on a flat face treated to have predetermined gloss and flatness on a surface of the metal preform, wherein the oxide film includes a plurality of hexagonal cells, each including a pore singularly disposed in a center portion of each hexagonal cell;
a colored layer disposed in each pore of each hexagonal cell in the oxide film layer;
a pore-sealing layer disposed above the colored layer in each pore of each hexagonal cell, filling each pore at least to a top surface of each hexagonal cell; and
at least a first deposition layer formed on the oxide film layer including the pore-sealing layer, and a second deposition layer laminated onto the first deposition, wherein the first and second deposition layers include a ternary material; and
an antifouling layer formed on the second deposition layer, and including an anti-smudge characteristic,
wherein the metal housing is formed to have a reflectance of 10% to 80%, and
wherein the metal housing is formed to have gloss of at least 75 Gloss Unit (GU) when measured using a gloss meter at a measurement angle of 60 degrees.
2. The metal housing of claim 1 , wherein the metal preform contains at least one of Al, Mg, Zn, Ti, Ta, Hf, or Nb.
3. The metal housing of claim 1 , wherein the metal preform is formed by at least one of cutting by a CNC machine, pressing, forging, injection molding, die-casting, or mechanical joining.
4. The metal housing of claim 1 , wherein the metal preform has a metal preform surface flattened through a polishing process using an abrasive.
5. The metal housing of claim 1 , wherein a colorant applied to the colored layer includes at least one of an organic/inorganic pigment, an organic dye, silver, or pearl, which fills at least a portion of the pore.
6. The metal housing of claim 1 , wherein the deposition layer is formed using at least one of a Ti-based material, a Sn-based material, a Cr-based material, a Si-based material, a Zr-based material, and an Al-based material.
7. The metal housing of claim 1 , wherein the first and second deposition layers are formed through a method of laminating at least two or more unit deposition layers having different refractive indexes.
8. The metal housing of claim 7 , wherein the ternary material of the first and second deposition layers includes a metal/non-metal material reacted with at least two of oxygen, nitrogen and carbon.
9. The metal housing of claim 1 , wherein the first and second depositions layer are formed by alternately forming the first deposition layer and the second deposition layer.
10. The metal housing of claim 1 , wherein, before forming the deposition layer, the oxide film layer is subjected to a hydrophilic treatment through at least one of a plasma etching treatment, an ion source treatment, and an etching treatment using a gun.
11. The metal housing of claim 1 , wherein the antifouling layer further includes at least one of an AF (anti-fingerprint) characteristic, an invisible-finger (IF) characteristic.
