What is disclosed is an electrode material including a sintered body containing a heat resistant element and Cr and being infiltrated with a highly conductive material. A powder mixture of a heat resistant element powder and a Cr powder is subjected to a provisional sintering in advance, thereby causing solid phase diffusion of the heat resistant element and Cr. After a Mo—Cr solid solution obtained by the provisional sintering is pulverized, the pulverized Mo—Cr solid solution powder is molded and sintered. A sintered body obtained by sintering is subjected to a HIP treatment. The highly conductive metal is disposed on the sintered body after the HIP treatment, and infiltrated into the sintered body by heating at a predetermined temperature. By conducting the HIP treatment, the withstand voltage capability and current-interrupting capability of the electrode material are improved.

A contact member that makes it possible to reduce variations in characteristics of individual vibration actuators. The contact member is in contact with a vibration member. The contact member has a sintered body of metal powder as a base material. A contact surface of the sintered body, which is in contact with the vibration member, is formed by impregnated resin portions as pore portions of the sintered body in which resin has been impregnated, and non-impregnated as pore portions of the sintered body in which the resin has been impregnated. A ratio of the impregnated resin portions with respect to an entirety of the contact surface is 2% or more and 15% or less, and a ratio of the non-impregnated pore portions with respect to the entirety of the contact surface is 3% or more.

A method of preparing a substrate having a wetting surface, including confirming the presence of an open, interconnected pore network in a ceramic substrate to be wetted with a first metal, filling the open, interconnected pore network with a second metal,

exuding the second metal to coat the surface of the substrate, and wetting the substrate with the first metal. The ceramic substrate is not decomposed by the first metal and the ceramic substrate is not decomposed by the second metal.
