Conclusions

  1. 1.

    A model of the volume structure of a current-conducting layer composed of spherical current-conducting particles is proposed. The feasibility of obtaining such a structure is demonstrated.

  2. 2.

    On the basis of experimental data, it is shown that the limit of existence of the volume structure corresponds to a current-conducting phase content of 52.3 vol.%. Data are presented illustrating the effects of the properties of the starting materials upon the TCR, Kmp, and Kag of resistors.

  3. 3.

    The feasibility of producing low-resistance variable resistors is established.
