PURPOSE: A chemical passivation method of a polymer material prevents undesirable reactions with surrounding environment. CONSTITUTION: A chemical passivation method of a polymer material includes a step of surface treating a polymeric material, and the surface-treated polymeric material does not conduct a reaction with surrounding environment. The surface treatment additionally includes a step sputter-coating the polymeric material with one or more metals to form a metal thin film on the surface of the polymeric material. An embedding method of the polymeric material comprises a step of surface-treating the polymeric material and a step of embedding the surface-treated polymeric material into an embedding resin.
