The preset invention has as its object the provision of a laminate free of hexavalent chromium and excellent in corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and a manufacturing process of the laminate. To solve the above-described problems, a laminate according to the present invention includes a substrate, and a laminated film portion with metal films laminated in two or more layers. The laminate has an interface layer between each two adjacent ones of the metal films. The laminated film portion contains a first metal element as a principal component, the first metal element being at least one element of Ni, Cr, Co, and W, and a second metal element that is a metal element of smaller cohesive energy than that of the first metal element. The second metal element contained in the interface layer is at a content ratio higher than that of the second metal element contained in each of the adjacent metal films.

Laminate, metal plating solution, and manufacturing process of laminate

An object of the invention is to provide a coating laminated body in which coatings not containing hexavalent chromium which is an environmental concern material, and excellent in corrosion resistance and wear resistance are laminated on a base material, and to provide a method for producing the same. The coating laminated body according to the invention is a laminated body in which a multiple-layer coating is laminated on a base material. The multiple-layer coating includes: a plurality of layers of S-containing Ni alloy coatings; and a sulfur concentrated layer that is formed between the plurality of layers of S-containing Ni alloy coatings and has an S concentration higher than an S concentration of the S-containing Ni alloy coatings. Each of the plurality of layers of S-containing Ni alloy coatings has a Ni concentration of 90% or more by mass, and a difference in Ni concentration between the coatings is within 1% by mass.

Provided are an electrode, an electrolysis cell, and an electrochemical analyzer that improve the long-term stability of analysis data. A working electrode, a counter electrode, and reference electrode are disposed in an electrolysis cell. The working electrode is obtained by forming a lead wire in a composite material having platinum or a platinum alloy as a base material, in which a metal oxide is dispersed, or in a laminated material obtained by laminating a valve metal and platinum such that the cross sectional crystal texture in the thickness direction of the platinum is formed in layers and the thickness of each layer of the platinum is 5 micrometers or less. The metal oxide is selected from among zirconium oxide, tantalum oxide, and niobium oxide, and the metal oxide content of the platinum or the platinum alloy is 0.005 to 1 wt % in terms of the zirconium, tantalum, or niobium metal.

Recovery of dehydrogenation product must be done separately from supply of hydrogen fuel. However, there is a problem that it takes much time when dehydrogenation product recovery and fuel filling are done separately. A fuel filling/waste solution recovery apparatus includes measuring means to measure a volume of supplied fuel and a volume of recovered waste solution by measuring flow rates of solutions passing through a fuel filling nozzle and a recovery nozzle or piping, and a display which shows the volume of supplied fuel and the volume of recovered waste solution which are measured by the measuring means.
