Abstract
To provide novel low-temperature sinterable copper particles that can be sintered even at a low temperature of, for example, around 100° C. or less, and a method for producing a sintered body by using the same. The low-temperature sinterable copper particles according to the present invention are coated with a carboxylic acid, and a surface of the copper particle is oxidized so as to have a cuprous oxide fraction (CuO/(Cu+CuO)) in the copper particle of 4% by mass or less or so as to have an average coating thickness of cuprous oxide of 10 nm or less. The low-temperature sinterable copper particles are subjected to low-temperature firing in an atmosphere of 0.01 Pa or less.
