This contact includes AgCdO10, AgCdO12, AgCdO15, and this kind of electrical contact
has one of the most important materials in silver - metal oxide contact material.
The fine CdO gives the contact special properties. When the temperature is
above900oC, CdO sublimes, which cools the contactor surface and reduces arc energy
and extinguishments. In addition, existence of cadmium oxide will improve the
welding resistance of the contactor. Its typical applications include low voltage
contactors, relays, automatic switch flash relays, auxiliary switch series,
timers, starters, breakers and leakage protective switches.
