Abstract
A pressure transducer includes a base ply, a resistance ply disposed on the base ply and at least two spaced apart conductors juxtaposed in relation to the resistance ply whereby at least one of the conductors may be pressed against the resistance ply. The resistance ply is made by spraying or silk screening a mixture of a continuous matrix conductive resin and a stannous oxide particulate and then curing the composition to form a solid resistance ply having a surface with a multiplicity of micro-protrusions formed by the stannous oxide particulate.
