Since the thick film conductor was originally developed for the purpose of sintering in air, a noble metal which is stable in air at high temperature has been used as the conductive filler. Since silver has the lowest electric resistance and the lowest price among noble metals, silver is one of the most suitable metals for use in the conductive paste for internal electrodes of various laminated electronic components that is small and has high reliability. , Has the following two drawbacks. That is, when a voltage is applied in the presence of water, it becomes a monovalent silver ion and causes migration, and because of its high solubility in Sn / Pb solder that is widely used, the solder leaching phenomenon is remarkable. Is. These drawbacks can be considerably improved by adding 20 to 40% of palladium and silver-palladium alloying the conductor composition, although the conductivity is somewhat impaired.

[0004] The addition of the above-mentioned palladium is usually made by adding a fine powder raw material of palladium. However, since the secondary agglomeration of the fine palladium powder is strong and it is difficult to disperse it, a long-term dispersion treatment is required. On the other hand, silver powder is relatively easy to disperse, but as the dispersion treatment progresses, the growth of flake-like lumps is promoted. Therefore, it is not preferable to disperse the silver powder for a long time. That is, because of the contradictory dispersion characteristics of the fine palladium powder and the fine silver powder, if a dispersion step capable of sufficiently dispersing the fine palladium powder by a conventional manufacturing method is adopted, flake-like agglomeration of the fine silver powder is promoted, Since the surface roughness and the filling rate of the coating film are deteriorated, the dispersion treatment cannot be performed for a long time, and the fine palladium powder cannot be efficiently dispersed. Therefore, in order to obtain a sufficient migration inhibiting effect, a large amount of fine palladium powder is required, resulting in an increase in resistivity and an increase in material cost.

The function of the present invention is considered as follows. That is, by thoroughly kneading and dispersing the palladium fine powder having relatively small ductility and malleability and little particle deformation due to shear stress during the dispersion treatment with the vehicle, a palladium paste having a good dispersion state of the fine palladium powder is obtained. On the other hand, on the other hand, a fine silver powder having a large ductility and malleability, which easily causes particle deformation due to shear stress during dispersion treatment, is dispersed in a vehicle by a kneading treatment for a short time, and then mixed with the palladium paste. Since it is possible to shorten the dispersion time, it is possible to prevent the silver fine powder from flaking and increasing the particle size, and as a result, a conductive paste in a good dispersed state can be obtained as a whole.
