Provided is a black heart malleable cast iron and a method for manufacturing the same which can significantly shorten the time required for graphitization, as compared with the prior art. The black heart malleable cast iron includes a matrix of ferrite and lump graphite included in the matrix, and includes at least one selected from the group consisting of (i) 0.0050% by mass or more and 0.15% by mass or less of bismuth and 0.020% by mass or more of manganese, and (ii) 0.0050% by mass or more and 1.0% by mass or less of aluminum and 0.0050% by mass or more of nitrogen. In addition, the grain size of the matrix is 8.0 or more and 10.0 or less in terms of grain size number, numerically determined by comparison between a metallographic photograph of the matrix and a standard grain size chart.

Stainless steel member for semiconductor fabrication equipment having a passive state coating on the surface of the stainless steel comprising, in weight percent, 0.1% or less of C, 2.0% or less of Si, 3.0% or less of Mn, 10% or more of Ni, 15 to 25% of Cr, 1.5 to 4.5% of Mo, 0.5% or less of one or more rare earth element and Fe for substantially the whole remainder. Said passive state coating has a pitting potential of at least 900 mV (when the current density of the anode polarization curve determined with a potentiostat in 3.5% aqueous sodium chloride solution is 10 .mu.A/cm.sup.2) and has a thickness of 0.5 to 20 nm. The invention also includes a surface treatment method for the stainless steel.
