First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A plating solution comprising: (A) a soluble salt containing at least a stannous salt; (B) an acid selected from organic acid and inorganic acid or a salt of the acid; and (C) an additive, wherein the additive comprises a ammonium salt represented by a general formula (1) below, wherein, in the formula (1), R 1 indicates C n H 2n+1 , n being an integer of 8 to 16, R 2 and R 3 are identical or different, and indicate C n H 2n+1 , n being an integer of 1 to 2, X represents a halogen, and Y represents (CH 2 —CH 2 —O) n , n being an integer of 1 to 2. 2 . The plating solution according to claim 1 , wherein the additive further comprises a nonionic surfactant represented by a general formula (2) below, R 3 —Y 1 —Z—Y 2 —R 4   (2) and wherein, in the formula (2), R 3 and R 4 is the group represented by the formula (A) below, —(C n H 2n —O) m —H   (A) and wherein, Y 1 and Y 2 represent a single bond or a group selected from —O—, —COO— and —CONH—; and Z represents a benzene ring or 2,2-diphenylpropane, and in the formula (A), n indicates 2 or 3 and m indicates an integer from 1 to 15. 3 . The plating solution according to claim 1 , further comprising an additional additive of a complexing agent, a brightener, or an antioxidant. 4 . The plating solution according to claim 2 , further comprising an additional additive of a complexing agent, a brightener, or an antioxidant.
