Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a silver powder which is an unprecedentedly fine particulate silver powder and has a dispersibility more approximate to monodispersibility resulting less aggregation. To achieve the above object, a fine particulate silver powder having unprecedented powder properties in which: a. the average particle diameter DIA of the primary particles obtained by image analysis of a scanning electron micrograph is 0.6 ?m or less; b. the crystallite diameter is 10 nm or less; and c. the sintering starting temperature is 240° C.
