  • Patent number: 6641930
    Abstract: An electrically conductive metal tape for manufacturing electrical contact components and a plug connector made of it. The metal tape has a base material made of copper or a copper alloy having a metallic coating, applied by molten technology, made of a tin-silver alloy containing a silver proportion between 1% and 3.8% by weight. The silver content in the coating preferably lies between 1.2% by weight and 2.5% by weight. Especially positive properties with respect to the adhesiveness between base material and metal coating are achieved by the silver proportion in the coating. At the same time, the temperature stability and sliding properties are improved. Furthermore, a stable contact resistance is ensured.

  • Patent number: 6638643
    Abstract: An electrically conductive metal tape for manufacturing electrical contact components, in particular plug connectors, having a base material made of a copper alloy having nickel proportions between 1.0 and 4.0% by weight, silicon proportions of 0.08 to 1.0% by weight, tin proportions between 0.02 and 1.0% by weight, zinc proportions of 0.01 to 2.0% by weight, zirconium proportions of 0.005 to 0.2% by weight and silver proportions between 0.02 to 0.5% by weight, the coating consisting of a tin-silver alloy having a silver proportion between 1.0 and 3.8% by weight. Particularly positive properties are displayed by a metal tape whose base material is made of a copper alloy having proportions of nickel between 1.4 and 1.7% by weight, silicon from 0.2 to 0.35% by weight, tin between 0.02 and 0.3% by weight, as well as zinc from 0.01 to 0.3% by weight.

  • Patent number: 6495001
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a metal composite strip for the production of electrical contact components. A film made of tin or a tin alloy is first applied onto an initial material made of an electrically conductive base material. A film of silver is then deposited thereonto. Copper or a copper alloy is preferably used as the base material. The tin film can be applied in the molten state, and the silver film by electroplating. Furthermore, both the tin film and the silver film can be deposited by electroplating. A further alternative provides for manufacturing the tin film in the molten state and the silver film by cathodic sputtering. The diffusion operations which occur in the coating result in a homogeneous film of a tin-silver alloy. This formation can be assisted by way of a heat treatment of the composite strip.
