Abstract
Abstract Resistance material consisting of a mixture of metal oxidic compounds, metal oxides, a permanent binder and a temporary binder, the resistance-determining component consisting of barium-rhodate BaRh 6 O 12 . This component has a linear positive temperature coefficient of the resistance (TCR) and enables the production of a resistor having a very low TCR by combining the material with a material having a negative TCR. The resistor is obtained by firing this resistance material after it has been applied onto a substrate.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
43 words
A resistance material consisting essentially of a mixture of at least one metal oxidic compound, a permanent binder and a temporary binder, at least one metal oxide and, as a resistance determining component, a barium-rhodate of the formula BaRh 6 O 12 .
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
43 words
A resistance material consisting essentially of a mixture of at least one metal oxidic compound, a permanent binder and a temporary binder, at least one metal oxide and, as a resistance determining component, a barium-rhodate of the formula BaRh 6 O 12 .
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
36 words
The resistance material of claim 1 wherein in addition there is present a metal rhodate having a negative temperature coefficient of the resistance (TCR) in such a quantity that a desired level of TCR is achieved.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
33 words
A material as claimed in claim 2, characterized in that the component having a negative TCR is a metal-rhodate of the formula M 3 Rh 7 O 15 , where M=Pb or Sr.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
60 words
A resistor formed by applying the resistance material of claim 1 to a substrate, heating said resistance material to a temperature sufficiently high to remove said temporary binder and to cause said permanent binder to adhere to said substrate thereby uniting said substrate and said resistance material into a coherent body and providing said coherent body with electrically conductive leads.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
11 words
A novel compound having the formula BaRh 6 O 12 .
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
11 words
A novel compound having the formula BaRh 6 O 12 .
