Details
Description
PC10370 is Cd free a low temperature firing silver paste designed to screen print solderable electrodes onto a variety of electrical ceramic component devices. The fired film forms a highly adherent bond to many types of substrates, including piezo-electric transducers (PZTs), NTC thermistors, alumina, steatite, and porcelain. The metalized electrode is readily solderable for external lead attachment.
