Abstract

Abstract Disclosed is a method for etching a polyamide shaped article which comprises etching a polyamide shaped article formed from a composition comprising 100 parts by weight of a polyamide and 10 to 50 parts by weight of an inorganic filler with an aqueous solution of borofluoric acid. According to this treating method, a good surface capable of providing a plated article having a high adhesion and a reduced deviation of the adhesion can be formed on the polyamide shaped article.
