Influence of Adding SiC on Microstructure and Electrical Properties of ZnO-based Nanocomposite Varistor

In this research the influence of adding SiC on microstructure and electrical properties of ZnO-based Nanocomposite varistors were investigated. SiC was added with amounts of 10-0 mass% to ZnO-based varistor composition. It is found that SiC allows reaching to high threshold voltage with formation of fine-graine...

influence of adding sic on microstructure and electrical properties of zno-based nanocomposite varistor

in this research the influence of adding sic on microstructure and electrical properties of zno-based nanocomposite varistors were investigated. sic was added with amounts of 10-0 mass% to zno-based varistor composition. it is found that sic allows reaching to high threshold voltage with formation of fine-grained zno.another important effect of adding sic is formation zn2sio4 (willemite) on the ...

Homogenized Maxwell’s Equations; a Model for Varistor Ceramics

A model for a semiconducting ceramic material used in devices to protect electrical equipment against overvoltages is presented. The fine structure in the material induces highly oscillating coefficients in the Maxwell equation. Maxwell equations are homogenized to obtain a coupled system. The fine scales in the model yield a local problem coupled with the homogenized Maxwell’s equations. In th...

Dc and Ac Electrical Properties of Ptc Barium Titanate Ceramics

The dc and ac electrical properties of PTC barium titanate ceramics were measured in the temperature range from 30 to 450°C. The Heywang's model alone is not sufficient to perform a quantitative analysis of the results. The heterogeneity of the system is taken into account.
