  • Patent number: 4496475
    Abstract: A conductive paste and an electroconductive body fabricated from the paste, in which the paste comprises inorganic non-metallic particles coated with silver, silver particles and an organic binder, or inorganic non-metallic particles coated with silver, silver particles, particles of glassy material and an organic vehicle. An electroconductive body comprises silver particles, and inorganic non-metallic particles coated with silver, both embedded in a matrix of organic material or of glassy material. The silver particles and silver-coated inorganic non-metallic particles are in effective contacting relationship within the matrix. Also disclosed are a silver-coated glass bead, for incorporation in paste and an electroconductive body, and methods for fabricating an electroconductive body. The electroconductive bodies are useful, for example, as termination elements for capacitors, and as internal conductive elements in capacitors of the type used in thick-film technology applications.
