Composite material, electric contact electrode, electric contact film, conductive filler, electric contact structure using composite material, and manufacturing method of composite material

摘要

A composite material includes a metal matrix of a metal and a reducing agent. The reducing agent is dispersed in the metal matrix and is capable of reducing an oxide of the metal at room temperature. Even when the oxide of the metal is generated on a surface of the composite material, the reducing agent reduces the oxide of the metal to the metal

主权项

1. An electric contact electrode, comprising:
a composite material surface layer portion configured to electrically contact another electrically conductive surface, wherein the composite material is a metal matrix containing metal as a matrix material, a reducing agent containing carbon is dispersed in the metal matrix, and the reducing agent is present in an amount effective for reducing an oxide of the metal at room temperature.
