The electrode formed on the ceramic substrate may be subjected to a thermal history for a certain time after the soldering process. For example, when a component having the electrode is resin-molded, it is subjected to a heat history of several hours at a temperature of about 150 ° C., and when the finished component is mounted on a vehicle exposed to a thermal atmosphere, the heat history is receive. When subjected to such a thermal history, Sn in the solder gradually diffuses into the conductor layer to generate a large amount of intermetallic compounds, which causes volume expansion and decreases the bonding strength with the ceramic substrate. In extreme cases, the bonding strength immediately after soldering should be 10
% Or less, and as a result, the leaded part may be removed.

This drawback can be solved to some extent by reducing the metal component and increasing the glass content, but if this is done, the solder wettability will decrease and soldering will become difficult. Therefore, in order to improve the aging characteristics while maintaining the soldering characteristics, it is necessary to devise an inorganic binder.

When the amount of glass is 2 to 9% by weight in the solid content of the paste, the solder wettability is good when the amount is less than 2% by weight, but the bonding strength with the ceramic substrate becomes insufficient, and the amount exceeds 9% by weight. On the contrary, the bonding strength with the ceramic substrate is improved, but the solder wettability is reduced, which causes practical inconvenience.

The bismuth oxide powder is necessary for firmly forming a glass-metal matrix near the boundary layer between the ceramic substrate and the conductor. If the amount of bismuth oxide is less than 5 parts by weight per 10 parts by weight of glass, a strong layer will not be formed and solder wettability will be insufficient. On the other hand, if it exceeds 45 parts by weight, the viscosity of the conductor during firing becomes too low, and the pattern during paste printing cannot be maintained.

The cordierite content of 2 to 5 parts by weight per 10 parts by weight of glass powder is less than 2 parts by weight because the effect of relaxing the thermal stress generated at the boundary between the ceramic substrate and the conductor is small and the joint strength is improved. If the amount exceeds 5 parts by weight, the flowability of the inorganic binder becomes poor at the time of firing, so that the bonding strength decreases and the solder wettability also deteriorates.

The reason for adding the alumina powder is that the cordierite alone causes the glass to remain inside the fired film and causes brittle fracture of the glass portion, so that the glass portion is crystallized to impart toughness. If the amount of alumina powder is less than 1 part by weight per 10 parts by weight of glass powder, the effect of crystallization is too small, and if it exceeds 3 parts by weight, the crystallization temperature becomes too low and the sintering of metal powder is hindered. Since the inorganic binder component remains in the solder and the solder wettability deteriorates,
It must be part by weight. It is preferable that all the powders are smaller than 325 mesh.
