Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A conductive paste including: (A) a silver powder; (B) a glass frit; (C) an organic binder; and (D) a powder containing copper, tin, and manganese.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A conductive paste comprising: (A) a silver powder; (B) a glass frit; (C) an organic binder; and (D) a powder containing copper, tin, and manganese, wherein a mass ratio of tin to copper is 0.01 to 0.3:1, and a mass ratio of manganese to copper is 0.01 to 2.5:1 and the powder (D) is contained in an amount of 0.1 to 5.0 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the silver powder (A). 2. The conductive paste according to claim 1 , wherein the powder (D) is a mixed powder of metals including copper, tin, and manganese. 3. The conductive paste according to claim 1 , wherein the powder (D) is a powder of an alloy containing copper, tin, and manganese. 4. The conductive paste according to claim 1 , wherein the powder (D) is a powder of a compound containing copper, tin, and manganese. 5. The conductive paste according to claim 1 , wherein the powder (D) contains an oxide or a hydroxide of one or more of copper, tin, and manganese. 6. The conductive paste according to claim 1 , wherein the silver powder (A) has an average particle diameter from 0.1 μm to 100 μm. 7. The conductive paste according to claim 1 , further comprising cobalt oxide (E). 8. The conductive paste according to claim 1 , further comprising bismuth oxide (F). 9. The conductive paste according to claim 1 , wherein the paste has a viscosity from 50 to 700 Pa·s. 10. A printed circuit board obtained by, after applying the conductive paste according to claim 1 on a substrate, firing the substrate at a temperature of 500° C. to 900° C. 11. An electronic device obtained by soldering an electronic part on the printed circuit board according to claim 10 .
