Abstract (en)

[origin: US2015069020A1] A contact element for high voltage direct current switches includes a matrix made of a first material selected from the group comprising copper, silver, palladium, platinum, tungsten, molybdenum, rhenium, nickel, gold, and alloys thereof. The contact element also includes a foreign phase, which is dispersed in the matrix and is made of a second material selected from the group comprising carbon, tin(II) oxide, tin(IV) oxide, zinc(II) oxide, tungsten, nickel and mixtures thereof. The contact element has a porosity of ≰1.0% by volume, based on a total volume of the contact element.
