Zusammenfassung: | Tape casting is a reliable route for mass production of precise miniature NTC chip sensors. The present paper describes the development work in tape casting of nickel manganite based NTC formulations. The most suitable dispersion condition of the powder in MEK–ethanol solvent system was determined by rheological and sedimentation studies. The optimized slurry composition for obtaining defect-free tapes was achieved by controlling the amounts of organic additives. The sintered chip samples exhibited 98% theoretical density with an over all shrinkage of 17%. |
