Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a filler-containing slurry composition capable of uniformly dispersing fillers in a matrix resin by appropriately selecting the shape of oxide fine particles used as fillers and the embodiment of charging the particles in the matrix resin. SOLUTION: The filler-containing slurry composition is constructed by that almost spherical oxide fine particles are used as fillers and the fillers are dispersed in an organic solvent. Since the filler-containing slurry composition has low-viscosity even if the concentration of fillers is high, the workability in an operation of mixing fillers with the matrix resin is improved, or the fillers can be uniformly dispersed in the matrix resin. By subjecting the fillers to a surface treatment or by further adding a precipitation inhibitor for fillers to the composition, more uniform dispersion of fillers in the matrix resin can be attained, or the storage property of the slurry composition itself is more improved.
