Abstract

Deformation of vias and shorting between vias during screening of conductive paste onto greensheets wider than 185 mm is avoided by a concentration of thixotropic agent in the conductive paste formulation to a concentration which raises the thixotropic index of the paste to within 5% to 25% of the maximum achievable thixotropic index for the organic vehicle in the paste. For a paste containing molybdenum powder in which the organic vehicle is a mixture of ethyl cellulose, texanol and oleoyl sarcosine, this criterion corresponds to a concentration of glycerl tri(-12-hydroxystearate) in the range of 1.4% to 1.8% by weight.
