Abstract:
The invention concerns a composition which may be used to form a temporary conductor or resistor, for example, by screen printing onto selected parts of an electrical circuit and peeled off when desired. The composition comprises vinylic resin, wax, solvent, and conductive and/or semiconductive particles.
Abstract:
A solderable electrically conductive film is formed on a substrate by forming a film-forming composition comprising polyimide, solvent therefor and dispersed metallic nickel particles. This composition is applied to the substrate, dried and cured to leave the film which comprises nickel particles dispersed in polyimide.
Abstract:
This invention concerns resistor compositions, methods of forming such resistor compositions, and articles comprising a substrate carrying such resistor compositions. The resistor compositions of the invention comprise carbon particles embedded in a matrix formed from short chain-length phenolic resin, long chain-length phenolic resin, epoxy and, optionally filler. The resistor compositions of the invention can be formed by mixing short chain-length phenolic resin, long chain-length phenolic resin, solvent, and, if present, filler with carbon particles to form a solution which is then mixed with the epoxy to form an ink. The ink is applied to a substrate to form a film thereon which is cured to evaporate solvent and to allow polymerization to occur thereby leaving the resistor composition on the substrate.

Abstract:
This invention provides solderable, flexible, conductive compositions which may be bonded directly to substrates. The conductive compositions comprise silver, substantially in the form of flake, and resin system, said resin system comprising vinyl chloride/vinyl acetate copolymer, epoxy resin and epoxy hardener. Also provided are methods of preparing compositions useful in forming conductive compositions. Once cured, the conductive compositions may demonstrate good adhesion directly to a substrate in addition to excellent conductivity, solderability and felxibility characteristics.
Abstract:
A solderable electrically conductive composition comprises metallic silver particles embedded in a matrix formed from acrylic, carboxylated vinyl and epoxy resins and can be formed by dissolving acrylic powder and vinyl powder in respective solvents to form a first solution and a second solution, mixing these solutions with metallic silver particles and an epoxy to form an ink which is applied to a substrate to form a film thereon. The film is heated to evaporate the solvents, and preferably to allow polymerization to occur, thereby leaving the solderable electrically conductive film on the substrate.
Abstract:
This invention is concerned with resistor compositions, methods of making them and articles comprising them. The resistor compositions comprise solid long chain phenolic resin, liquid short chain phenolic resin and, dispersed therein, a mixture comprising carbon black and graphite particles. The resistor compositions are capable of withstanding high humidity conditions without significant changes in resistivity and are capable of low ohmic values without the need to use metals.
