A metal composition that includes a metal component and a flux. The metal component is composed of a first metal powder of a Sn-based metal, and a second metal powder of a Cu-based metal that has a higher melting point than the Sn-based metal. The flux includes a rosin, a solvent, a thixotropic agent, an activator, and the like. When the metal composition is heated to a temperature equal to or higher than the melting point of the first metal powder, the first metal powder is melted. The melted Sn and the CuNi alloy powder produce an intermetallic compound phase of a CuNiSn alloy through a TLP reaction.
