Abstract

Abstract Conductive silver compositions useful for producing in a single application step solderable metal coatings on titanate bodies especially semiconducting ceramic titanate bodies, the silver compositions comprising specific amounts of finely divided silver; boron, Ni 3 B, and/or certain nickel boride/phosphides; and a binder which is glass and/or PbF 2 . These inorganic solids are dispersed in an inert liquid vehicle. Also these compositions fired on a dielectric substrate.
