Disadvantages of the prior art However, the conventional structure in which the second electrode layer 3 made of Ni plating or the like is the outermost layer has low acid resistance, and when a corrosion test with acetic acid or the like is conducted, it corrodes in about 100 hours. Due to its low acid and chemical resistance, pickling or chemical cleaning cannot be used to remove limescale adhering to the electrode surface when used as an ultrasonic vibrator in an ultrasonic humidifier. However, it was difficult to obtain a sufficient cleaning effect.

The first electrode layer 2 is formed by silver baking as in the conventional case,
The second electrode layer 3 is formed by nickel plating. The nickel passive film 4 is formed by subjecting the thus formed nickel plating layer of the second electrode layer 3 to a surface treatment with hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, or the like. Therefore, the nickel passive film 4 has a thickness equivalent to that of surface treatment, for example, 0.17 mm.
The layer thickness is Lm to 2.5 gm, which is approximately 50% of the thickness of the nickel plating layer constituting the second electrode layer 3. Note that the first electrode layer 2 has a thickness of 5 Bm to 25 JLm, and the second electrode layer 3 has a thickness of 5 Bm to 25 JLm.
It is desirable to form it so that it is about 0.2 gm to 57 Lm.

The nickel passive film 4 that constitutes the surface film of the electrode is amorphous and has a flexible structure that is very dense and has good adhesion, and prevents the movement of metal ions from the metal to the solution. It acts as a barrier to ion movement. Therefore, compared to the conventional nickel plating layer, oxidation resistance and chemical resistance are significantly improved, and when used as an ultrasonic vibrator in an ultrasonic humidifier, the surface of the nickel passive film 4 It becomes possible to remove attached limescale and the like by acid washing, chemical cleaning, etc., and it becomes possible to obtain a sufficient cleaning effect.
