Definitions

  • At least one of said two electrodes being a silver paint electrode.
  • This invention relates to voltage variable resistors having nonohmic resistance and more particularly relates to varistors comprising zinc oxide and having silver electrodes applied thereto.
  • n a numerical value greater than 1. The value of n is calculated by the following equation:
  • V,and V are the voltages at given currents I and 1 respectively.
  • I, and I are 2 are 10 ma. and 100 ma; respectively.
  • the desired value of C depends upon the use to which the resistor is to be put. It is ordinarily desired that the value of n be as large as possible since this exponent determines the degree to which the resistors depart from ohmic characteristics.
  • Silicon carbide varistors are most widely used as voltage variable resistors and are manufactured by mixing fine particles of silicon carbide with water, a ceramic binder and/or conductive material such a graphite or metal powder, pressing the mixture in a mold to the desired shape, and then drying and firing the pressed body in air or a nonoxidizing atmosphere.
  • Silicon carbide varistors with conductive materials are characterized by a low electric resistance, Le. a low valve of C and a low value of n whereas silicon carbide varistors without conductive materials have a high electric resistance, Le. a high value of C and a high value of n. It has been difficult to manufacture silicon carbide varistors characterized by a high n and a low C.
  • silicon carbide varistors with graphite have been known to exhibit n-valves from 2.5 to 3.3 and C-values from 6 to 13 at a given current of 100 ma. and silicon carbide varistors without graphite shown n-values from 4 to 7 and C-values from 30 to 800 at a given current of 1 ma. with respect for a given size of varistor, e.g. 30 mm. in diameter and 1 mm. in thickness.
  • Conventional rectifiers comprising selenium or cuprous oxide have an n-value of to 10 and a C-valve less than 2 at a given current of mo ma. with respect for a rectifier size of 20 mm. in diameter. In this case, the thickness of the rectifier does not effect the C-value.
  • a germanium or silicon PN junction resistor has an extremely high value of n but its C-value is constant, e.g. on the order of 0.3 or 0.7 at a given current of I00 ma. because its diffusion voltage in the V-l characteristic is constant and cannot be changed greatly. It is necessary for obtaining a desirable C-value to combine several diodes in series and/or in parallel. Another disadvantage of such diodes is the complicated steps involved in their manufacture, with resultant high cost. As a practical matter, the use of diode resistors is not widespread at the present because of their high cost even though they may have a high value of n.
  • An object of this invention is to provide a voltage variable resistor having a high value of n and a low value of C.

The n-valve and C-value of voltage variable resistors produced in this manner vary with the compositions of the sintered body and the electrodes, and the method of their preparation.
