Abstract

To provide a thick film resistor paste for a resistor having a smaller resistance change rate and excellent surge resistance, a thick film resistor using the thick film resistor paste, and an electronic component provided with the thick film resistor. A thick film resistor paste comprises a lead-ruthenate-containing glass powder and an organic vehicle, the lead-ruthenate-containing glass powder comprises 10 to 70 mass % of lead ruthenate, a glass composition of the lead-ruthenate-containing glass powder comprises 3 to 30 mass % of silicon oxide, 30 to 90 mass % of lead oxide. 5 to 50 mass % of boron oxide relative to 100 mass % of glass components, and, a combined amount of silicon oxide, lead oxide and boron oxide by mass % is 50 mass % or more relative to 100 mass % of the glass components.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A thick film resistor paste, characterized by kneading:
a lead-ruthenate-containing glass powder that does not contain a ruthenium oxide; and
an organic vehicle,
wherein the lead-ruthenate-containing glass powder comprises 10 mass % or more and 70 mass % or less of lead ruthenate relative to 100 mass % of the glass composition containing the lead ruthenate;
wherein a glass composition of the lead-ruthenate-containing glass powder comprises 3 mass % or more and 60 mass % or less of silicon oxide, 30 mass % or more and 90 mass % or less of lead oxide, and 5 mass % or more and 50 mass % or less of boron oxide relative to 100 mass % of glass components; and
wherein a combined amount of silicon oxide, lead oxide and boron oxide by mass % is 50 mass % or more relative to 100 mass % of the glass components.

2. The thick film resistor paste according to claim 1 , wherein an average particle diameter of the lead-ruthenate-containing glass powder is 5 micrometers or less.

3. The thick film resistor comprising a sintered body of the thick film resistor paste according to claim 1 .

4. An electric or electronic component provided with the thick film resistor according to claim 3 .
