Abstract

Spray pyrolysis was used to produce submicron Ag-Pd metal alloy particles for applications in electronic component fabrication. The particles were prepared in nitrogen carrier gas from metal nitrate precursor solutions with various compositions. The Ag-Pd alloy was the predominant phase for reactor temperatures of 700 °C and above for all compositions. The 70-30 Ag-Pd partcles were fully dense at 700 °C, but an increased reaction temperature was necessary to produce dense particles at higher Pd to Ag ratios. The extent of palladium oxidation was suppressed with increased amounts of Ag. Single-crystal particles could be produced at sufficiently high temperatures. These results show that particle phase composition, size, oxidation behavior, and morphology can be controlled by the Ag-Pd ratio in the precursor solution and by the reaction temperature.
