A conductive paste for multilayer electronic components which is to be
directly printed on a ceramic green sheet, the conductive paste contains
a conductive powder, a resin and an organic solvent, wherein the organic
solvent contains at least one solvent selected from an alkylene glycol
diacetate and an alkylene glycol dipropionate. A multilayer electronic
component is obtained by firing at high temperature an unfired laminate
prepared by alternately stacking ceramic green sheets and internal
electrode paste layers in which each of the internal electrode paste
layers is formed by the above conductive paste. The conductive paste has
appropriate viscosity characteristics and long-term stability, which
allows manufacturing highly reliable multilayer electronic components
having excellent electrical characteristics, without causing sheet
attack.
