Process for producing a multilayer molded article

Claim 1

A process for producing a multilayer molded article which comprises: wetting a skin material comprising a fabric or a thermoplastic resin sheet as an outermost layer with at least one liquid material, which is a volatile material and which is a liquid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, state and a solution having a surfactant contained therein comprising a volatile material which is liquid in an ordinary state as a medium, supplying the wet skin material between male and female molds, supplying a thermoplastic resin melt between the molds and closing the molds to shape the thermoplastic resin melt against the wet skin material and thereby form the multilayer molded article comprising the integrally adhered skin material and the thermoplastic resin, wetting, of the skin material including wetting of the outermost layer to the extent that increase of the temperature of the skin material and excess penetration of the skin material are prevented during shaping of the thermoplastic melt, thereby preventing deterioration of the feeling and warping of the molded article.
