A vitreous enamel resistor material comprising a mixture of a vitreous glass frit and fine particles of tantalum nitride (Ta2N). The vitreous enamel resistor material may also include fine particles selected from boron, tantalum, silicon, zirconium dioxide (ZrO2), and magnesium zirconate (MgZrO3). An electrical resistor is made from the resistor material by applying the material to a substrate and firing the coated substrate to a temperature at which the glass melts. Upon cooling, the substrate has on a surface thereof a film of glass having the tantalum nitride particles and particles of the additive material, if used, embedded therein and dispersed therethroughout. |
