Abstract: On a surface of a transfer sheet, a resistor paste is first patterned, and a binder resin thereof is then heat-cured to form resistor layers. Next, an electrode paste containing a binder resin, which has a thermosetting temperature lower than a thermosetting temperature and a glass transition temperature of the binder resin of the resistor layers, is patterned on surfaces of the resistor layers and is then heat-cured, thereby forming electrode layers. By the steps described above, powdered silver contained in the electrode layers is unlikely to ooze into the resistor layers.

Abstract: A method for producing a resistor. The method includes a process for printing, in a prescribed pattern, a mixed solution containing a good solvent having solubility to a binder good solvent, a thermosetting binder resin, and a conductive filler. The method further includes a process for driving the mixed solution: and a process for curing the binder resin by baking. The good solvent is at least one selected from dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, and dipropylene glycol monoethyl ether. The poor solvent is at least one selected from terpineol eat 2-phenoxy ethanol and 2-benzyloxy ethanol.

Abstract: A resistor is produced so that dispersity of carbon black in the resistor is low in a surface of the resistor and high in an inner part thereof. In the surface of the resistor, current paths are formed by the carbon black with poor dispersity to minimize a contact resistance of a sliding contact or the like. In the inner part of the resistor, the carbon black is uniformly dispersed to increase a resistance. Accordingly, a total resistance value can be prevented from lowering.
