This Ag-oxide type material has excellent contact properties such as welding resistance, wear resistance, and contact stability, and is therefore mainly used in the region of medium current or higher. The reason why this contact characteristic is excellent is that the arc voltage and current are lower than that of Ag or Ag-Ni, so arcing is easy to occur. It is said that this improves the cleaning and arc blowing effects, thereby providing excellent contact characteristics.

In this way, the Ag-oxide material contains 5 to 20
Although the contact properties are improved by dispersing approximately wt% of oxides, on the other hand, the plastic workability is significantly reduced, and as the amount of oxides increases, it becomes difficult to process into strips.

Furthermore, since oxides are dispersed in Ag, it is very difficult to weld Ag-oxide materials to a base material or the like. For these reasons, Ag and Ag-Ni have excellent workability and weldability.
It is not used as much in strip material compared to .

In other words, when processing Ag-oxide based powders, pieces, short wires, or granules after sintering, the presence of oxides dispersed in Ag causes problems between the powder, pieces, short wires, or granules. Due to its low strength, cracks are likely to occur during drawing processes, etc. In particular, when the amount of oxide exceeds 8 wt%, this tendency becomes noticeable, and processing into wire rods, strips, etc. becomes extremely difficult.

Therefore, in order to increase the strength between the powders and particles, there is a method of forming an Ag-rich layer around the Ag-oxide flakes, as disclosed in, for example, JP-A-54-33207-0.

There is a problem in that contact characteristics deteriorate due to the appearance of a dilute layer of oxide.

Furthermore, as mentioned above, since Ag-oxide-based materials contain oxides, there is a problem in that the contacts cannot be stably welded to the composite material.

According to the above configuration, Ag is contained inside the Ag-oxide strip.
By arranging -Ni alloy and forming an Ag alloy layer on the outer periphery of the Ag-oxide-based strip, it compensates for the lack of strength between Ag-oxide-based powders, pieces, short wires, and grains, and In addition to improving the plastic working ability of materials, when bonding firmly to composite materials etc. as a contact point, a strong bond can be obtained due to the synergistic effect of the Ag-Ni alloy placed inside the strip and the Ag alloy layer formed on the outer periphery. It will be done.

The reason why the area ratio of the Ag-Ni alloy to the area of the Ag-oxide material was set at 5 to 40% is that if the Ag-Ni alloy is less than 5%, the plastic working ability of the Ag-oxide material will not improve. 40% due to insufficient effect on adhesive bonding to composite materials, etc.
This is because if it exceeds this, the contact properties, especially the welding resistance, will deteriorate.

また、Ag−Ni合金のNi量を5〜20wt%に限定
した理由は、Nilが5wt%未満ではAg−Ni合金
の機械的強度が小さく、Ni量が20wt%を超えると
加工性が急激に低下するためである。
In addition, the reason why the Ni amount in the Ag-Ni alloy is limited to 5 to 20 wt% is that when the Ni content is less than 5 wt%, the mechanical strength of the Ag-Ni alloy is low, and when the Ni content exceeds 20 wt%, the workability rapidly decreases. This is because it decreases.

On the other hand, the reason why the area ratio of the Ag alloy layer to the sum of the areas of the Ag-oxide material and the Ag-Ni alloy was set to 5 to 35% is that if it is less than 5%, the coating strength is too small and the plastic working ability cannot be improved. This is because not only does it not contribute, but also a sufficient effect cannot be obtained when bonding to a composite material, etc. If it exceeds 35%, wear resistance among the contact characteristics decreases.

Furthermore, Fe and N, which are additives of the Ag alloy that forms the coating layer, are added.
The reason for adding one or more types of i, Mn to an amount of 0.01 to 1 wt% is that if the amount added is less than 0.01 wt%, the strength during processing is insufficient, and if it exceeds 1 wt%. This is because the electrical resistance increases, which may have a negative effect on the opening and closing of the contacts.
