Abstract: A method of making silver-metal oxide materials suitable for use in electrical contacts includes oxidizing a silver-solute metal alloy in an oxidizing atmosphere. The oxidizing atmosphere has a sufficient amount of halide to inhibit the formation of a protective oxide scale around the alloy.

Abstract: 2127685 9314238 PCTABS00024 A method of making silver-metal oxide materials suitable for use in electrical contacts includes oxidizing a silver-solute metal alloy in an oxidizing atmosphere. The oxidizing atmosphere has a sufficient amount of halide to inhibit the formation of a protective oxide scale around the alloy. The invention also includes a silver-metal oxide material made with this method and an electrical contact with the silver-metal oxide material.
