METHOD FOR MAKING A POSITIVE TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT DEVICE

摘要

A method for making a positive temperature coefficient device includes: (a) forming a crosslinkable preform of a positive temperature coefficient polymer composition containing a polymer system and a conductive filler; (b) attaching a pair of electrodes to the preform; (c) soldering a pair of conductive leads to the electrodes using a lead-free solder paste having a melting point greater than 210° C.; and (d) crosslinking the crosslinkable preform after step (c).
