Abstract:
A method for producing a ceramic electronic component comprising a ceramic base material, a surface film conductor formed on a surface of the base material, and a side film conductor formed on a surface adjacent to the surface, comprising:(a) forming a surface film conductor on the ceramic base material with a first conductor composition containing a metal powder substantially constituted by particles of Ag or an Ag based alloy whose surface is coated with at least one organic metal compound or metal oxide having as a constituent metal element any one selected from the group consisting of Al, Zr, Ti, Y, Ca, Mg and Zn, and an organic medium in which the metal powder is dispersed; and (b) forming a side film conductor on the ceramic base material with a second conductor composition containing a metal powder substantially constituted by particles of Ag or an Ag based alloy whose surface is coated with at least one organic metal compound or metal oxide having as a constituent metal element any one selected from the group consisting of Al, Zr, Ti, Y, Ca, Mg and Zn, and an organic medium in which the metal powder is dispersed; the second conductor composition being characterized in that (1) a coating amount of the organic metal compound or the metal oxide is smaller than that of the first conductor composition and/or (2) at least one inorganic oxide powder that is not contained in the first conductor composition is contained as a secondary component, or a content ratio of an inorganic oxide powder contained also in the first conductor composition is high.
