Abstract

A resistive composition that can form a thick film resistor excluding a toxic lead component from a conductive component and glass and having characteristics equivalent to or superior to conventional resistors in terms of, in a wide resistance range, resistance values, TCR characteristics, current noise characteristics, withstand voltage characteristics and the like. The resistive composition of the present invention includes: ruthenium-based conductive particles including ruthenium dioxide; a glass frit that is essentially free of a lead component; and an organic vehicle, wherein the glass frit is a glass frit which is constituted such that in a case where a fired product of a mixture of the glass frit and the ruthenium dioxide has in a range of 1 kΩ/□ to 1 MΩ/□, the fired product exhibits a temperature coefficient of resistance in a plus range.

3. The resistive composition according to claim 1 , wherein the first glass component contains, in terms of oxide, 20 to 45 mol % of BaO, 20 to 45 mol % of B 2 O 3 , and 25 to 55 mol % of SiO 2 .

4. A resistive composition comprising: ruthenium-based conductive particles including ruthenium dioxide; a glass frit that is essentially free of a lead component; an organic vehicle and glass particles that are essentially free of a lead component, wherein the glass frit is a glass frit which is constituted such that in a case where a fired product of a mixture of the glass frit and the ruthenium dioxide has a value in a range of 1 kΩ/□ to 1 MΩ/□, the fired product exhibits a temperature coefficient of resistance in a plus range and wherein a glass transition point Tg of the glass frit is (a firing temperature−200)° C. or less and a glass transition point Tg′ of the glass particles is (the firing temperature−150)° C. or more.

5. The resistive composition according to claim 4 , wherein the glass frit comprises, in terms of oxide, 20 to 45 mol % of BaO, 20 to 45 mol % of B 2 O 3 , and 25 to 55 mol % of SiO 2 .
