In particular, when friction due to sliding acts on the electrical contact pair, wear due to the adhesion becomes significant. When severe wear occurs, the base material exposed on the surface or the lower layer having a higher contact resistance than the Ag layer constitutes the contact portion, so that the connection reliability of the connector terminal pair decreases.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une paire de contacts électriques (1) comportant un premier contact électrique (11), un second contact électrique (12) et une section de contact (13). Le premier contact électrique (11) est pourvu d'une première couche d'alliage Ag-Sn (113) au-dessus d'un premier matériau électroconducteur (111) de base, et d'une première couche d'Ag (114) stratifiée sur la surface de la première couche d'alliage Ag-Sn (113), la première couche d'Ag (114) étant apparente sur la surface située le plus à l'extérieur. Le second contact électrique (12) possède une seconde couche d'alliage Ag-Sn (123) au-dessus d'un second matériau électroconducteur (121) de base, et une seconde couche d'Ag (124) stratifiée sur la surface de la seconde couche d'alliage Ag-Sn (123), la seconde couche d'Ag (124) étant exposée sur la surface située le plus à l'extérieur. Dans la section de contact (13), le contact est maintenu entre la surface de la première couche d'Ag (114) du premier contact électrique (11) et la surface de la seconde couche d'Ag (124) du second contact électrique (12). La pression de contact appliquée à la section de contact (13) est inférieure ou égale à 630 N/mm2.
