  • Publication number: 20240083801
    Abstract: A bushing for producing glass fibers, including: a plurality of nozzles made of platinum or the like to discharge molten glass; and a base plate made of platinum or the like. A coating layer is preferentially formed on an outer circumferential face in a tip part on the side of glass discharge of the nozzle, and a width of the coating layer is 5% or more and 95% or less with respect to the entire length of the nozzle. The base plate includes a non-coating area. Areas of the nozzles and the base plate not provided with the coating layer act as a sacrificial metal for protecting the nozzle tip parts. In consideration of the sacrificial metal, a coverage rate P of the coating layer in the nozzle tip parts calculated e with a prescribed equation is preferably 5% or more and 350% or less.

  • Patent number: 10106691
    Abstract: To be provided is a metal paste from which an electrode having high electrode activity as a sensor electrode of various gas sensors can be produced. The present invention is a metal paste for forming a gas sensor electrode obtained by dispersing a conductive particle including Pt or a Pt alloy and a ceramic powder including zirconia or stabilized zirconia, or any of zirconia and stabilized zirconia and one or more oxides of La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, and Hf in a solvent, the metal paste further including an inorganic oxide particle containing alumina and an insoluble particle that is insoluble in the solvent, in which 0.5 or more to 3.0 mass % or less of the inorganic oxide particle and 1.0 to 5.0 mass % of the insoluble particle are dispersed based on the mass of the solid content of the conductive particle, the ceramic powder, the inorganic oxide particle, and the insoluble particle.

  • Patent number: 9585250
    Abstract: [Problem to be solved] The present invention provides a conductive paste for constrained firing and a ceramic substrate manufactured with the conductive paste, the conductive paste having an excellent plating resistance and a good adherence against a ceramic substrate and a plated film even after plating treatment, wherein a constraining layer after firing can be easily removed without remaining on a surface conductor in a case where co-firing is performed. [Solution] Provided is a conductive paste comprising 60 to 95 mass % of an Ag powder as the content in a paste composition, 0.5 to 5 mass % of a borosilicate based glass powder relative to the Ag powder, the remainder being a platinum group metal additive and an organic vehicle, wherein the platinum group metal additive contains at least two metals of Ru and Rh, and the content of Ru and the content of Rh in the platinum group metal additive are 0.05 to 5 mass % of Ru and 0.001 to 0.
