FIG. 2 illustrates a conventional method for producing copper powder in the order of steps. First, in step A, raw materials containing copper, such as Cu (NO 2 ), CuSO 4 , CuO, etc., are prepared. Next, in step B, a reduction treatment such as solution reduction or electrolytic reduction is performed and reacted to form copper powder. Subsequently, after the copper powder is dried as in step C, it is stored in the atmosphere as in step D, or in vacuum or in an inert gas. Next, as in the step E, the copper powder is taken out and tapped with a ball mill, a stamp mill or the like to be deformed into a scaly piece shape to obtain a copper scaly powder. As described above, this copper flake powder is used as the material for the conductive thick film.

By the way, in the conventional method for producing copper powder, between the reaction step and the descaling step,
There is a problem that copper powder is oxidized during drying and storage. For this reason, it becomes difficult for copper powder to adhere in the scaly process, so that it becomes impossible to obtain the one having high filling property. Oxidation of copper powder cannot be avoided even if it is stored in a vacuum or in an inert gas because a trace amount of oxygen is present in them.
