Abstract: This invention provides a technique that enables a chemical conversion coating excellent in adhesiveness and corrosion resistance to be formed on or over a magnesium material or magnesium alloy material and use of the technique. The above object is achieved by performing a surface conditioning treatment by using a surface conditioning agent that includes specific dibasic calcium phosphate particles before performing a chemical conversion for forming the chemical conversion coating.

Abstract: Provided is a surgical electrode in which an end portion capable of emitting a high frequency has a surface treatment film that includes a first coating and a second film in the order mentioned. The first coating is formed by contacting a surface treatment agent (X) with or over the entirety or a part of the surface of the end portion at least, which surface treatment agent (X) contains at least an amino group-containing compound, and the second film is formed by contacting a surface treatment agent (Y) with a part or the entirety of the surface of the first coating, which surface treatment agent (Y) contains: a silicone resin (A); a compound (B) containing a metal element selected from titanium, platinum, rhodium and palladium; and an aromatic hydrocarbon-based solvent (C), and satisfies: (I) the content of the silicone resin is in a range of 90% by mass to 99.

Abstract: Provided is a magnesium-containing metal material that includes coatings having excellent corrosion resistance on a surface. Specifically, provided is a magnesium-containing metal material with coating, which is characterized by including: a magnesium hydroxide-containing first coating on a surface of a magnesium-containing metal material composed of magnesium or a magnesium alloy; a hydroxyapatite and/or hydroxyapatite carbonate-containing third coating over the first coating; and a dibasic calcium phosphate-containing second coating between the first coating and the third coating.

Abstract: The present invention is aimed at providing: a surface treatment agent that is capable of forming a surface-treated coating film having excellent antifouling properties; a metal material that includes a surface-treated coating film using the surface treatment agent; and a method of producing the metal material. The present invention provides a surface treatment agent containing: a silicone resin (A); a compound (B) containing a metal element selected from titanium, platinum, rhodium and palladium; and an aromatic hydrocarbon-based solvent (C). In the surface treatment agent, (I) a content of the silicone resin (A) is in a range of 90% by mass to 99.9% by mass with respect to a total solid mass of the silicone resin (A) and the compound (B), and (II) a ratio (BM/AM) of a mass (BM) of the compound (B) to a mass (AM) of the silicone resin (A) is in a range of 0.001 to 0.111.
