B2O3-Doped ZnO-Pr6O11 Based Varistor Ceramics
Abstract:
B2O3-doped ZnO-Pr6O11 based varistor ceramics were fabricated by sintering samples at 1350 °Cfor 2h with conventional ceramic processing method. The microstructure and electrical properties of the as-prepared samples were investigated. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that after the addition of B2O3 with the amount designed in this study, no new phase was examined in the detection limit. Through scanning electron microscopy it was found that the doping of B2O3 can promote the growth of ZnO grains, and the sintering of the samples. The result of electrical properties indicated that the nonlinear coefficient and varistor voltage of the samples could be improved to some extent with appropriate doping amount of B2O3, resulting in the highest nonlinear coefficient 6.7, lowest leakage current 329 μA/cm2, and highest varistor voltage 92.4 V/mm, respectively.
