Abstract
Provided is a flat Ni particle which has a large specific surface area, permitting efficient binder removal when the flat Ni particle is used for internal electrodes of a laminated ceramic electronic component. The flat Ni particle has a thickness t (m), a specific gravity ρ (g/m), and a radius r (m), and a specific surface area S(m/g), such that the specific surface area Sis adapted to have a relationship of 1.5×S<S<1.9×Swith a theoretical specific surface area in the case of assuming a surface to be completely smooth, represented by S=2/(ρ×t)+2√2/(ρ×r) (m/g).
