Abstract:
A process for producing a monolithic ceramic electronic component, which comprises:forming a ceramic paste by dispersing a first mixture comprising ceramic powder and a first organic solvent in the absence of an organic binder to provide a primary dispersion, dispersing a second mixture comprising an organic binder, a second organic solvent and the primary dispersion to provide a secondary dispersion, wherein the second organic solvent has a relative evaporation rate lower than that of the first organic solvent and selectively removing the first organic solvent from the second mixture; forming a plurality of composite structures by shaping a ceramic slurry to form a ceramic green sheet having a main surface, applying a conductive paste onto the main surface of the ceramic green sheet so as to provide step sections of an internal circuit element film, and applying said ceramic paste onto the region on the main surface of the sheet not having the internal circuit element film so as to substantially compensate for the spaces defined by the step sections and tp form a ceramic green layer; forming a green laminate by laminating a plurality of the composite structures; and firing the green laminate.
