[0018] By adjusting the ratio of argon gas to oxygen gas, the ratio of argon gas increases, the particle kinetics increases, and the plating film can be made denser, and therefore the acid, alkali, and weather resistance is also improved. In addition, by increasing the amount of gas, the film thickness can be increased, and by adjusting the amount of gas injected between different layers, the ratio of oxygen gas also changes, and as the film thickness changes, the stress inside the film decreases due to the change in the amount of oxygen gas, improving the strength of the film.

[0021] The following tests were carried out on the products in the above examples and the plating films produced in the comparative examples.
[0022] Plating spectroscopic test: After plating, the product was subjected to spectroscopic test, the spectrum curve was output, and it was judged whether the spectrum met the specification requirements. The detailed results are shown in Table 2.
[0023] Washing spectroscopy test: After washing with high pH solution, the product was subjected to spectroscopy test, and the spectrum curve was output, and the spectrum met the specification requirements. The detailed results are shown in Table 3.
[0024] High temperature and humidity storage: 1) The temperature of the incubator was set to 85°C ± 3°C, and the relative humidity was set to 85% ± 5%, 2) The test sample was left in the incubator for 1000 hours (hours; the same applies below), 3) The sample was allowed to recover at room temperature (25°C ± 5°C) for 24 hours, and then tested for spectroscopy, appearance, and film strength. The detailed results are shown in Table 4.
[0025] Thermal shock: 1) The samples were stored in a cycle of -40°C±2°C (30 minutes) and 85°C±3°C (30 minutes) for 1000 hours with a temperature change time of 5 minutes. 2) The samples were allowed to recover at room temperature (25°C±5°C) for 24 hours, and then tested for spectroscopy, appearance, and film strength. The detailed results are shown in Table 5.
[0026] High temperature storage: 1) The temperature of the incubator was set to 105°C ± 3°C, and the sample was left in the incubator for 1000 hours. 2) The sample was allowed to recover at room temperature (25°C ± 5°C) for 24 hours, and then the spectroscopy, appearance, and film strength tests were performed.

[0028] In the above tests, all of the products of Examples 1 to 4 met the requirements, and all of the products manufactured by the method of Example 5 met the requirements. On the other hand, when the comparative example was immersed in a high pH solution and then subjected to the above tests, obvious defects occurred on the surface, making it unsuitable for use.
[0029] This product adds lanthanide materials to the plating film layer, and mixes tantalum and titanium elements to separate the sizes of different ions, thereby reducing the gaps in the film layer after plating. Referring to Figures 1 and 2, it can be seen from the microscopic view after plating in this embodiment that the density of the plating film is greatly increased, and the corrosion resistance is further improved. In addition, another factor that increases the density of the plating film is the plating process. In the plating process, the ratio of argon gas and oxygen gas is adjusted, and after the amount of argon gas is increased, the ion power is increased, and the density of the plating film is further increased. At the same time, the deposition plating of different plating layers is performed in the same cavity, and different amounts of oxygen gas are injected, so that the stress of the plating film between different layers is reduced due to the change in the amount of oxygen gas, and the strength of the plating film is improved.
