The results show that the varistor voltage of ZnO varistor increases with the content of Nd_2O_3 in the range of 0～0.04 (%,mol fraction). However when the content of Nd_2O_3 is more than 0.04 (%,mol fraction),the varistor voltage of ZnO varistor decreases with the content increase. The microstructure analysis indicates that a small amount of new compound with Nd exists at ZnO grain boundary and hinders the movement of grain boundary,which decreases the size of ZnO grain and makes the grain size and distribution homogeneous,as a result,additive (Nd_2O_3) raises the varistor voltage of the varistor greatly.展开更多

The results show that the varistor properties were significantly influenced by the size of introduced seed grains, and introducing larger seed grains is more advantageous to the modification of microstructure and the improvement of varistor properties. The varistor properties were considerably improved with a moderately increased sintering temperature or time, whereas degraded apparently when the sintering temperature or time was excessively increased. Compared with the sintering time, the sintering temperature plays a more critical role in determining the varistor properties. By introducing pre fabricated ZnO seed grains into the original powders, low voltage ZnO varistor ceramics possessing the desired electrical properties have been produced with a sintering temperature of about 1 210 ℃ and a sintering temperature of 2～2.5 h.
