Four kinds of metal, such as aluminum, copper, indium and tin, thin films were deposited onto polyester (PET) substrate by a conventional vacuum evaporator and evaluated their tensile and adhesion properties. The tensile property was estimated by observations of micro-cracks of the thin films due to the tensile test at 150°C. The tensile property of the metal thin films seems to relate with Brinell hardness and thickness of the thin film. The adhesion property of these metal thin films was estimated by measuring the pull strength. Aluminum thin film showed highest pull strength of all the thin films, and the pull strength increased with increase of the thickness.
