Thick Film Conductor Materials for HTCC Applications
Ferro offers thick-film platinum and tungsten conductors designed to be co-fired with refractory zirconia tapes and alumina tapes. These refractory ceramic tapes and conductor pastes are co-fired at high peak temperatures over 1,400⁰ C.
Our platinum and tungsten conductors, surface, buried and via-fills are specifically formulated for compatibility with refractory zirconia and alumina ceramic tapes.
Ferro’s thick film conductor materials are manufactured to be lead-free, cadmium-free and phthalate-free. All our thick film conductor materials for HTCC applications are formulated to be RoHs and REACH compliant.

Ferro has over 20 years of experience in designing and manufacturing thick film materials and products formulated specifically for high temperature co-fired ceramics (HTCC) applications.
Successful processing and firing of multilayer co-fired structures utilized in various sensors requires knowledge of dimensional stability during layer build and printing, shrinkage during firing, and the necessary firing regime to ensure that flat, blister-free parts are produced. Our customers can leverage our prototype-building equipment and expertise in these processing aspects.
We also provide training at our own facilities or on-site at our customers’ locations, with comprehensive programs that cover most aspects of sensor manufacturing including materials, equipment, prototype building, testing and evaluation processes.
