Abstract
Abstract Disclosed herein is a method of manufacturing a ceramic laminate which is adapted to manufacture a laminated ceramic capacitor, for example. This method comprises the steps of preparing a plurality of ceramic green sheets containing ceramic powder and a first binder, forming metal paste films containing metal powder and a second binder for providing internal electrodes on first major surfaces of the ceramic green sheets and stacking the plurality of ceramic green sheets with each other. In such a method, a junction member containing a solvent which can commonly dissolve the first and second binders is prepared in order to join the plurality of ceramic green sheets with no application of pressure, to be applied between adjacent pairs of the plurality of ceramic green sheets, which are stacked with each other. The junction member is adapted to join the adjacent pairs of ceramic green sheets with each other through chemical function.
