When the amount of PbO added is larger than that shown in Table 1,
When the coefficient of linear expansion (α) becomes high and the amount of ZnO added is large, the glass transition point (Tg) becomes low and crystallization becomes easy. Further, when the added amount of B 2 O 3 is large, the glass transition point becomes high, and when the added amount exceeds 15.0% by weight, crystallization becomes difficult. Furthermore, the glass transition point tends to increase and the linear expansion coefficient tends to decrease as the amount of SiO 2 added increases. Then, as the amount of V 2 O 5 added increased, the glass transition point decreased and crystallization of the glass proceeded. Further, in a system containing a small amount of PbO and B 2 O 3, it was easy to form a porous glass.

(1, G5 glass), the glass is easy to peel off, 90 × 1
It can be seen that when it exceeds 0 −7 / ° C. (G4 glass), cracks are likely to occur. It is considered that the samples in which cracks and glass peeling occurred have low discharge withstand characteristics because the side surface high resistance layer has poor insulation.

Even in the range of 90 × 10 −7 / ° C., glass having poor crystallinity (G8 glass) is likely to be cracked and has low discharge withstand characteristic. This is considered to be because the strength of the coating film of crystalline glass is higher than that of amorphous glass.

Further, the addition of ZnO has no great influence on the electrical characteristics and reliability of the zinc oxide varistor, and is useful for lowering the glass transition point among the physical properties of glass. Further, the prior art example in which PbO-ZnO-B 2 O 3 , in the case of using the composite glass feldspar, voltage application life characteristic is it can be seen that a lower discharge withstand current rating characteristic is a practical level.

Next, the amount of V 2 O 5 added will be considered.
First, in the composition system in which the added amount of V 2 O 5 is 0.1% by weight or more, the voltage non-linearity is improved in any composition system, and accordingly, the life span characteristic is also improved. this is,
By adding V 2 O 5 in an amount of 0.1% by weight or more, V 2 O 5 is slightly diffused on the side surface of the sintered body during the glass baking treatment, and ZnO
It is considered that this is because the resistance of the particles increases.

On the other hand, when the added amount of V 2 O 5 is more than 5.0% by weight, the discharge withstand characteristic is low. It is considered that this is because the flowability of the glass during the baking process is poor and the glass tends to become porous. Accordingly, PbO-ZnO-B 2 for side high-resistance layer of a zinc oxide varistor O 3 -SiO 2 -V 2 O 5
In the crystallized glass, at least V 2 O 5 is 0.1 to
It is a necessary condition that the composition system contains 5.0% by weight.

From the above results, the composition of the crystallized glass for coating is 55.0 to 75.0% by weight of PbO and 1% of ZnO.
0.0-30.0 wt%, B 2 O 3 5.0-10.0 wt%, SiO 2 0-15.0 wt%, V 2 O 5 0.1
It can be seen that the range of up to 5.0% by weight is optimal. Further, for the side surface high resistance layer of the zinc oxide varistor, it is necessary that the coefficient of linear expansion be within the range of 65 to 90 × 10 -7 / ° C.

Next, the coating amount of the glass paste was examined using the G16 glass of the present invention (Table 1). The results are shown in (Table 3) below. At this time, the coating amount of the glass paste was 1.0 to 300.0 mg / cm 2 , and was controlled by the viscosity of the paste and the number of coatings. At this time, when the coating amount is less than 10.0 mg / cm 2 , the strength of the coating film is low, and when the coating amount is more than 100.0 mg / cm 2, glass flows or pinholes occur. Is likely to occur, resulting in poor discharge withstand characteristics. Therefore, it is understood that the optimum application amount of the glass paste is in the range of 10.0 to 100.0 mg / cm 2 .

Next, the conditions for baking the glass paste were examined using the G16 glass of the present invention (Table 1). The results are shown in (Table 4) below. At this time, the viscosity was controlled so that the coating amount of the glass paste was 50.0 mg / cm 2 . Further, the baking treatment of the glass paste was performed in the air in the temperature range of 350 to 700 ° C. for a holding time of 1 hour.

As a result, when the baking treatment is carried out at a temperature lower than 450 ° C., the glass paste is not sufficiently melted so that the discharge withstand characteristic is low, and when the baking treatment is carried out at a temperature higher than 600 ° C., the voltage ratio is remarkably lowered. , The charging life characteristic deteriorates. Therefore, the baking treatment condition of the glass paste is 450-
It can be seen that the temperature range of 600 ° C. is optimum.
