Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce the quantity of consumption of a contact and the number of weldings by interposing a nonoxidized Ag alloy layer having the same component as Ag-oxide contact material as an intermediate layer between the Ag- oxide contact material and Cu (alloy). CONSTITUTION:The nonoxidized composition Ag alloy with good jointability, namely, the Ag alloy having the same component as the Ag-oxide material is subjected to thermocompression bonding to the Ag-oxide material formed by dispersing an oxide of Cd, Sb, Sn, In, Zn, etc., in Ag. Further, the above- mentioned material is held for a prescribed time at the temperature below the melting point of both and above 400 deg.C in a nonoxidized atmosphere of N2, etc., or an inert atmosphere to accelerate diffusion of the joined interface. The Cu (alloy) is joined to the above-mentioned material so that the Ag alloy layer is made to the intermediate layer to form composite material. By this method, the quantity of consumption of the contact point is reduced and the number of weldings is diminished to zero and the contact where peeling is also not observed at all is obtained.

However, in recent years, composite materials made of Ag-oxide materials and Cu or Cu alloy strips have come into widespread use for the purpose of streamlining processes. Since it is difficult to directly bond the Ag-oxide material and Cu or Cu alloy, this composite material is usually manufactured with an Ag layer interposed as an intermediate layer.

When observing the contact after the contact is opened and closed, fine ranks appear at the bonding interface between Ag and the Ag-oxide material, especially at the end of the contact.

In addition, these cracks promote the deterioration of heat diffusion such as Joule heat and arc heat generated when the contacts are opened and closed, causing false welding and abnormal wear of the contacts.
