Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9517759A1] A sintered contact material made of silver and nickel is characterised in that it contains from 5 to 50 % by mass nickel, and in that nickel is homogeneously distributed in the silver structure as particles of 1 mu m to 10 mu m average size (<o>d</>). An appropriate process for producing this sintered contact material is characterised in that the nickel is introduced into the silver structure before sintering, as when an alloy is mechanically produced. This process takes place in an air atmosphere. Contact pads made of this material may be extruded as strips or sections, compression moulded as individual contact pieces or be designed as two-layered pieces.
