SOLDERING PASTE FOR PRODUCING GEOMETRICAL METAL STRUCTURES WITH PRECISE CONTOURS

摘要

A process for producing, on a metallic substrate, a geometric metal structure having a precise contour, including the steps of: solder coating a solder paste onto the substrate by screen printing to create the geometric metal structure, the solder paste comprising an organic binder system, and 80 to 95 weight % of a mixture of a nickel-based solder and a pulverulent alloy of nickel with at least one member selected from the group consisting of chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, manganese and iron, provided as a higher-melting metallic filler, wherein a weight ratio of solder to filler is 2-6:1, an average grain size of the solder is between 10 and 50 mum, and a grain size ratio of solder to filler, relative to the average grain size is from 0.5-2.5:1; drying the structure; decomposing the organic binder system present in the solder paste, without leaving a reside, by a heat treatment; and raising the temperature until the resulting solder material liquifies.
