Abstract

Abstract A composition (18) comprising (A) an epoxy resin type adhesive, (B) particles obtained by coating a nucleus of a curing agent with a film, (C) pressure-deformable electroconductive particles (3) having an average particle size larger than that of the particles (B), and if necessary (D) rigid particles having an average particle size smaller than that of the particles (B), is effective for connecting circuits electrically or connecting a semiconductive chip (11) to a wiring substrate (14).
