Abstract

Thick film resistive elements are prepared from an intimate admixture comprising silica, lead oxide and ruthenium dioxide or iridium dioxide which is heated to a temperature sufficient to provide a lead-containing glass having dispersed therein lead ruthenate or lead iridate. The lead-containing glass is comminuted and a resistor paste is formed which can be subsequently coated and fired on to a desired substrate to form the thick film resistive component. The method of this invention may facilitate the production of thick film resistors exhibiting a low temperature coefficient of resistivity, relative freedom from noise and drift, and high moisture resistance.
