- metal oxide powders are available, their grain sizes are significantly smaller than 1 ⁇ m can be used of metal oxide powder instead of metal powder and subsequent Achieve a contact material by reducing the metal oxide, where the average grain size of the metallic active components is in the nanometer range.
- metal oxide powders under less stringent transportation and processing instructions are worked on, as in In contrast to metal oxide powders, many metal powders are self-igniting are. In this way, the manufacturing costs to reduce.
- the reduction of the metal oxide is advantageously carried out in the powder mixture, because of the increasing compression of the A complete powder mixture in subsequent steps Reduction of the metal oxide is difficult.
- the reduction of the metal oxide can also be in a blank of the Molding take place, which still has a sufficiently high porosity or has gas permeability.
- a blank is for example the one to be made available in extrusion technology Slug, which is subsequently pressed into a strand.
- Such a blank can also be used in molding technology be produced preliminary product for a molded part before it the molded part is produced by pressing and sintering again becomes.
- the reduction of the metal oxide is expediently carried out by achieved a heat treatment in a reducing atmosphere. It is particularly effective when the heat treatment in a temperature range of 500 ° C below the melting point of silver, i.e. taking into account the admixed Active components at a temperature between 500 ° C up to 1000 ° C, preferably at 700 ° C, is carried out.
- the reducing atmosphere as a protective gas used for any sintering that may be required become. Sintering and reduction can thereby occur during production of the contact material can be done in one operation.
- the gas hydrogen (H 2 ) usually used for the sintering is advantageously also used as the reducing atmosphere.
- the active component supplied in powder form. This is particularly the case if the active component is in the form of a Powder of a metal oxide with very small grain sizes supplied becomes.
- the active component can be achieved in the contact material, if as a metal oxide a powder with a grain size of smaller than 1 ⁇ m, preferably from 100 to 500 nm.
- the manufactured contact material or the molding from the Contact material has advantageous switching properties if the powder mixture is another metal or another Metal oxide is added.
- the further metal oxide reduced to another metal as described. It but it is also conceivable that the further metal oxide only after to reduce the reduction of the powder mixture.
- the manufactured one In this case, the contact material would have an oxidic Active component.
