In this study, our varistors based on M. Matsuoka's composition were fabricated with ZnO nano-powder whose sizes were 50 nm and 100 nm. Before fabrication of ZnO nano-powder varistors, structure and Phase were analyzed by FE-SEM and XRD with size of ZnO nano-powders to obtain manufacturing information to fabricate the first ZnO varistors using by nano-powders. As a results of these analyses, calcination and sintering temperatures were respectively designed at $600^{\circ}C\;and\;1050^{\circ}C$. ZnO nano-powder varistors were analyzed by SEM and XRD to measure the changes of microstructures and phase after sintered by out process conditions. Also, electrical properties of ZnO nano-powder varistors were obtained by capacitance-voltage, frequency-teal impedance, and current-voltage corves. Our ZnO nano-powder varistors had about 2.5 times of electric field at varistor voltage as compared with normal ZnO varistors fabricated with micro-powder. Also, leakage current and non-liner coefficient respectively had $2.0{\times}10^{-6}A/cm^{-2}$ and 41 for ZnO nano-powder varistors with 50 nm.

In this study, our varistors based on M.Matsuoke's composition were fabricated with ZnO nano-powder whose sizes were 50nm and 100nm. Electrical properties of ZnO nano-powder varistors were obtained by capacitance-voltage and frequency-real impedance. nano-powder varistors are indicated the change of the interface defects density $N_t$ at the grain boundaries and the donor concentration $N_d$ in the ZnO grains. Frequency analysis was accomplished to understand the equivalent circuit.

Bi-based nano-varistors and micro-varistors fabricated with each ZnO nano-powder and micro-powder were studied about characteristics on the surge capability in this study. ZnO nano-varistors were sintered in air at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr. The voltage-current and residual voltage properties of ZnO nano-varistor were compared with their of ZnO micrio-varistor. As a result of these properties, our ZnO nano-varistor has about 3 times at operating voltage as compared with conventional ZnO varistor fabricated with micro-powder and the residual voltage was 8.06 kV at nominal discharge current 101kA in the lighting impulse current test. And then the residual voltage rate 1.72 of our nano-varistor has had better performance than the 1.79 of micro-varistor because ZnO nano-varistor has shown much quick response property because of increasing effective cross-section area. Also, to analysis surge capability took thermal images for pyrexia temperature distribution with each of the varistors after operating varistors. Nano-varistor doesn't have shown local overheating and can confirm accurate temperature grade on the surface of its.

Nano-Varistors fabricated with ZnO 30nm and 80nm powders were studied about the electrical characteristics with AC accelerated degradation in this paper Especially, ZnO nano-powder varistors were sintered m air at $1050^{\circ}C$ and analyzed the phenomenons of before and after AC degradation test. The stress conditions of AC degradation test were $1.0V_{1mA}$ $115{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ for 24h. 80nm-varistor was exhibited better performance than 30nm-varistor m the electrical stabilities. And then 80nm-varistor resulted m the degradation characteristics that the variation rate of operating voltage, nonlinear coefficient and leakage current was -0 3%, -0 4% and -3 3%, respectively.

The characteristics of varistors based on M.Matstuokas with one another ZnO powder (50nm, 100nm, 300nm) have been investigated. The optimum calcination and sintering temperature was also selected for each samples. Varieties of sintering conditions were found according to powder size. As the result of analysises on each operating voltages. We obtained the most high voltage in a sample with 50nm ZnO powder.

Varistors based on M.Matsuoka were prepared from ZnO nanopowders, every one of which had bar type and about less 100nm length. The compact green disks were conventionally sintered in air for 2 hours at a temperature of $1050^{\circ}C$. The Varistors with nonlinear coefficient ${\alpha}=45$, leakage current $I_{\ell}=2{\times}10^{-7}A/cm^2$, operating voltage 9000v/cm, and average grain size $3{\mu}m$ were obtained. The advantages of the samples were due to greater structural homogenity, higher density, smaller grain size.

Nano sized ZnO particle as 20-30nm applies for material, pigments, rubber additives, gas sensors, varistors, fluorescent substance as well as new material such as photo-catalyst, sensitizer, fluorescent material. ZnO with a particle size in the range 20-30nm has provided to be an excellent UV blocking material in the cosmetics industry, which can be used in sunscreen product to enhance the sun protection factor and natural makeup effect. But pure ZnO particles application limits for getting worse wearing feeling. We make high-functional inorganic-composite that coated with nano-ZnO on the plate-type particle such as sericite, boron nitride and bismuthoxychloride. In this experiment, we synthesized composite powder using hydrothermal precipitation method. The starting material was ZnCl$_2$ Precipitation materials were used hexamethylenetetramine(HMT) and urea. We make an experiment with changing as synthesis factors that are concentrations of starting material, precipitation materials, nuclear formation material, reaction time, and reaction temperature. We analyzed composite powder's shape, crystallization and UV-blocking ability with FE-SEM, XRD, FT-IR, TGA-DTA, In vitro SPF test. The user test was conducted by product's formulator. In the results of this study, nanometer sized ZnD was coated regardless of the type of plate-powder at fixed condition range. When the coated plate-powders were applied in pressed powder product, the glaze of powder itself decreased, but natural make-up effect, spreadability, and adhesionability were increased.
