Abstract

Abstract A method for surface treating conductive copper powder comprises dispersing pure copper powder or silver-coated copper powder in a solution of coupling agent selected from the group consisting of silane, titanate, aluminate and zirconate and a ZB-3 treating agent which is the reaction products of peanut oil fatty acids, boric acid and triethanolamine in a molar ratio of 1:1:2 in an organic solvent, the total amount of the coupling agent and ZB-3 treating agent being controlled in the range of from 0.1% to 10%, based on the weight of the copper powder, filtering after 1 hour standing and drying at 40°-60° C. under vacuum.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 78 words
A method for surface treating conductive copper powder which comprises dispersing pure copper powder or silver-coated copper powder in a dilute solution of treating agent which is the reaction products of peanut oil fatty acids, boric acid and triethanolamine in a molar ratio of 1:1:2 and a coupler selected from the group consisting of silane, titanate, aluminate and zirconate in an organic solvent, filtering after 1 hour standing and then drying at 40° to 60° C. under vacuum.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 78 words
A method for surface treating conductive copper powder which comprises dispersing pure copper powder or silver-coated copper powder in a dilute solution of treating agent which is the reaction products of peanut oil fatty acids, boric acid and triethanolamine in a molar ratio of 1:1:2 and a coupler selected from the group consisting of silane, titanate, aluminate and zirconate in an organic solvent, filtering after 1 hour standing and then drying at 40° to 60° C. under vacuum.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the ratio of coupler to ZB-3 ranges from 5:95 to 95:5 by weight.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 27 words
