Abstract
Abstract An electrically conductive paste composition comprises an electrically conductive powder, a solvent and an organic binder comprising one or more monohydric phenol adduct compound selected from the group consisting of: (a) a monohydric phenol adduct of an unsaturated fatty acid, its metal salt or an unsaturated fatty acid ester, (b) a saturated or unsaturated fatty acid ester of said phenol adduct (a), (c) a sulfonation product of said phenol adduct (a) and (d) an amination product of said phenol adduct. It is applied to a resin article to provide an electric circuit having an improved adhesion.

Claim 2
Dependent Claim
96 words
An electrically conductive paste composition which comprises 50 to 95 percent by weight of an electrically conductive powder, a solvent and 5 to 50 percent by weight of an organic binder comprising one or more monohydric phenol adduct compounds selected from the group consisting of: (a) a monohydric phenol adduct of an unsaturated fatty acid, its metal salt or an unsaturated fatty acid ester, (b) a saturated or unsaturated fatty acid ester of said phenol adduct (a), (c) a sulfonation product of said phenol adduct (a) and (d) an amination product of said phenol adduct (a).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words
The composition as claimed in claim 1, which comprises an electrically conductive powder, a solvent, and a mixture of organic binders wherein one of the binders is one or more monohydric phenol adduct compounds.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
165 words
The composition as claimed in claim 1, in which the monohydric phenol adduct compound is defined by the formula (I): ##STR9## wherein R is a residue of an unsaturated fatty acid or its ester bonded to phenol at the o- or p-position and represented by the formula R 1 COOR 2 --or R 3 OCOR 4 --wherein R 1 is a monovalent unsaturated hydrocarbon group having 15 to 21 carbon atoms, R 2 is a hydroxyalkylene group having at least one carbon atom, an arylene group or a branched or straight-chain alkylene group, R 3 is a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyalkyl group having at least one carbon atom, an aryl group or a branched or straight-chain alkyl group and R 4 is a divalent unsaturated hydrocarbon group having 15 to 21 carbon atoms; R 5 is hydrogen, an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, or a fatty acid residue having 1 to 21 carbon atoms; and n is an integer of 1, 2 or 3.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
90 words
