Abstract
A fusible conductive adhesive for making electrical and mechanical contact is provided. The fusible conductive adhesive contains a polymer having a glass transition temperature and a thermal expansion co-efficient. The thermal expansion co-efficient of the polymer is in the range of about 5 parts per million per degree centigrade to about 10 parts per million per degree centigrade along a z-axis. The polymer is loaded with a conductive material having a sintering temperature range overlapping the glass transition temperature of the polymer. In addition, the loading of the conductive material in the polymer is in the range of about 15% to about 20% conductive material by weight based on the total weight of the polymer and the conductive material.
