Abstract

The microstructure and nonlinear properties of ZPCMR-based varistors were investigated with various additives. The density of varistors were gradually decreased for the same R in order of NiO, MgO, and $Cr_2O_3$, respectively. The ZPCR-based varistors were not affected by NiO and MgO additives in nonlinear properties, whereas greatly affected by $Cr_2O_3$. Among the ZPCCR-based varistors, ZPCCD varistor exhibited the highest nonlinear properties, in which the nonlinear exponent is in the range of $40.5{\sim}67.4$ and the leakage current is in the range of $1.2{\sim}2.7{\mu}A$.
