Abstract: A plating member comprising a lead-free plating material is obtained by the present invention in a manner such that whisker formation on a plating layer 16 of the plating member can be suppressed and thus the plating member has good solderability. In the case of such plating member having, on the surface of a base material 15, a plating layer 16 comprising a lead-free material (Sn—Cu alloy, etc.), the plating layer 16 has a layer structure of two or more layers (a1 to a3), the average particle diameter of plating particles (P1 to P3) constituting each layer varies from layer to layer, and the plating particle volume fraction of the plating layer 16 is 80% to 90% when the proportion of plating particles occupying a unit volume is defined as a plating particle volume fraction of 100% on the assumption that a unit volume 20 is filled with plating particles P3 each having the maximum average particle diameter.

Abstract: In a plated member (3) that has a pure Sn plating layer (2) of a lead-free material on a surface of a base material 1, the orientation indices of a (101) plane and a (112) plane of the pure Sn plating layer are increased to values higher than the orientation indices of the other crystal orientation planes.

Abstract: An absorbent liquid according to the present invention is an absorbent liquid for absorbing CO2 or H2S or both from gas, in which the absorbent liquid includes an alkanolamine as a first compound component, and a second component including a nitrogen-containing compound having in a molecule thereof two members or more selected from a primary nitrogen, a secondary nitrogen, and a tertiary nitrogen or a nitrogen-containing compound having in a molecule thereof all of primary, secondary, and tertiary nitrogens. The absorbent liquid has an excellent absorption capacity performance and an excellent absorption reaction heat performance, as compared to an aqueous solution containing solely an alkanolamine and a nitrogen-containing compound in the same concentration in terms of wt %, and can recover CO2 or H2S or both from gas with smaller energy.

Abstract: According to the present invention, in order to suppress whisker formation on a plated member having a plated layer comprising a lead-free material, the orientation index of the plane (321) in a plated layer for a plated member 3 having a plated layer 2 comprising a lead-free material on the surface of a base material 1 is 2.5 to 4.0. In another embodiment, the value (220)/(321) derived from the ratio of the orientation index of the plane (220) to that of the plane (321) for the plated layer is 0.5 to 1.5. An undercoat layer 4 having the orientation plane (220) may be formed between the base material 1 and the plated layer 2.

Abstract: The present invention produces nuclide transmutation using a relatively small-scale device. The device 10 that produces nuclide transmutation comprises a structure body 11 that is substantially plate shaped and made of palladium (Pd) or palladium alloy, or another metal that absorbs hydrogen (for example, Ti) or an alloy thereof, and a material 14 that undergoes nuclide transmutation laminated on one surface 11A among the two surfaces of this structure body 11. The one surface 11A side of the structure body 11, for example, is made a region in which the pressure of the deuterium is high due to pressure or electrolysis and the like, and the other surface 11B side, for example, is a region in which the pressure of the deuterium is low due to vacuum exhausting and the like, and thereby, a flow of deuterium in the structure body 11 is produced, and nuclide transmutation is carried out by a reaction between the deuterium and the material 14 that undergoes nuclide transmutation.
