An aluminum-based metal member used for bonding with a resin member formed of a thermoplastic resin composition,
- wherein a dendritic layer is formed on at least a surface of a bonding portion with the resin member, and,
- when analysis is conducted with a Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR) on the surface of the bonding portion of the aluminum-based metal member and an absorbance of an absorption peak observed at 3400 cm−1 is defined as Ai and an absorbance at 3400 cm−1 of a straight line connecting an absorbance at 3800 cm−1 and an absorbance at 2500 cm−1 is defined as A0, an absorbance difference (A1−A0) is in a range of 0.03 or less.
