Copper paste for forming conductive thick film

摘要

Disclosed herein is copper paste for forming a conductive thick film, which contains 80 wt. % to 95 wt. % of spherical first copper powder of 1 mu m to 10 mu m in mean particle diameter, 0.5 wt. % to 15 wt. % of second copper powder of less than 1 mu m in mean particle diameter, and 1 wt. % to 15 wt. % of glass frit of 0.5 mu m to 2.0 mu m in mean particle diameter respectively as solid components. A conductive thick film obtained by applying the copper paste onto a substrate and baking the same exhibits excellent solderability as well as high adhesive strength to the substrate, and this adhesive strength is excellently maintained even if the thick film is exposed to a heat hysteresis.
