<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a seal which evade the damage/rupture of a ceramic electrolyte, and further can obtain secure adhesion. <P>SOLUTION: The seal (10), intended to be inserted between first and second members, includes two contact portions (16) spaced from each other along a spacing direction, respectively intended to contact in a tight manner the first and second members. The contact portions (16) are made of a first alloy displaying superplasticity properties under predetermined stress conditions including predetermined temperature conditions, and are supported by a support (22) arranged therebetween. The seal is produced so as to display, under the predetermined temperature conditions, a greater mechanical compression resistance in the spacing direction than that of the contact portions (16). <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
