  • Abstract
    For this paper, a super-fine compound powder, Ag/SnO2+La2O3+Bi2O3 has been obtained successfully using the chemical coprecipitation method, and a new contact material, Ag/SnO2+La2O 3+Bi2O3, was produced by the powder metallurgy method. Its properties are as follows: density is 9.75~9.93 g/cm3, resistivity is 2.31~2.551 Ωcm, and hardness is 880~985 MPa. Its microstructure shows that the fine oxides have a uniform distribution in the silver matrix. The results of make-break capacity and temperature rise testing show that the new material has better anti-arc erosion ability and lower temperature rise than that of commonly used Ag/CdO material
