Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a conductive plastic, a metal fiber or a low melting point metal mixed with a metal fiber in a resin to reduce the contact resistance of the metal fiber to improve reliability has been known as an electromagnetic shield. It is used as an application. However, conventional conductive plastics have a large volume resistivity of 10 ↑-↑ 3 Ω · cm or more, so they generate heat when energized, causing the conductive plastic to melt or increase the resistance. Was not available. In addition, since there is a difference in thermal expansion between the plastic and the metal component due to a change in temperature, when the temperature becomes high, there is also a problem that the contact points of the metal are reduced due to the expansion of the resin, and as a result, the conductivity is deteriorated. In addition, it is known to add a small amount of eutectic solder, which is a low-melting-point metal, to a resin.However, since eutectic solder contains lead, there is a problem that its waste has a bad effect on the environment. Was. In order to increase the conductivity of conductive plastics, more metal components must be mixed into the resin.However, if too much metal fiber is mixed, the moldability deteriorates and the injection nozzle becomes clogged or injection molding into a narrow shape is performed. There is a problem that can not be done.

いと混練中に樹脂が熱分解してしまう。)[0005] One of the uses of the conductive plastic obtained as described above is to apply to wiring of three-dimensional circuit parts by a two-color molding technique of injection molding. In this case, adhesion between the frame and the conductive plastic is also regarded as important, but it is necessary to prevent a gap or a shift from occurring at the joint interface due to a difference in thermal expansion, a difference in a secondary transition point, a repeated thermal shock, or the like. For this purpose, it is necessary to increase the thermal matching property (adhesion) by using the same resin as the material of the frame and the conductive plastic. For example, in a frame, polypropylene (P
When it is desired to use P), the resin used for the conductive plastic is also polypropylene (PP). It is lead free
Good quality conductive plastics cannot be produced unless solder whose alloy component is adjusted in a temperature range where the melting point of the solder is thermoplasticized by PP is used. (For example, if the melting point of the solder is lower than the melting point of the resin, the solder melts first during kneading, and the solder is not finely dispersed in the resin and becomes large metal particles. In addition, the melting point of the solder is much higher than the melting point of the resin. The resin is thermally decomposed during kneading.)
