Method for producing plated material, and plated material
First Claim
1. A method for manufacturing a plated material, comprisingproviding a metal substrate comprising a reflow tin-plated layer and a reactive layer at an interface between the reflow tin-plated layer and the metal substrate,a first step including peeling at least a portion of a reflow tin-plated layer from the metal substrate to expose at least a portion of the reactive layer and produce a peeled region comprising the reactive layer on the substrate;
- a second step including applying nickel plate processing to at least a portion of the peeled region on the substrate to form a nickel-plated layer;
a third step including applying silver strike plate processing to at least a portion of the nickel-plated layer;
a fourth step including applying silver plate processing to at least a portion of the region where silver strike plate processing has been applied, andwherein the reflow tin-plated layer is formed by applying a reflow process to a tin-plated layer on the metal substrate to convert the tin-plated layer into a reflow tin-plated layer and to form the reactive layer.

Abstract
Provided are: a plated material having excellent abrasion resistance, electrical conductivity, sliding performance, and low friction, and wherein a plating layer does not undergo embrittlement properly; and a method for producing the plated material. The method includes a first step of at least partially removing a reflow tin plating layer from a metallic base material having the reflow layer on at least a part thereof and a reactive layer provided at the interface between the reflow layer and the base material; a second step of at least partially subjecting a region in which the reflow tin plating layer has been removed to a nickel plating treatment; a third step of at least partially subjecting the nickel plating layer to a silver strike plating treatment; and a fourth step of at least partially subjecting a region of the silver strike plating to a silver plating treatment.
