Definitions
- This invention relates to a non-linear resistor used for voltage stabilizers, surge absorbers, arresters, etc., and a process for producing the same.
- a conventional non-linear resistor has a structure as shown in Fig. 1, wherein electrodes 2 are formed individually on upper and lower major surfaces of a sintered body 1 having as a major component zinc oxide and non-linear resistance characteristics.
- a non-linear resistor is produced by a well-known ceramic sintering technique.
- a suitable binder such as water, poly(vinyl alcohol), or the like to form granules, which are pressed into a body of a desired shape and size.
- the body is then sintered in an electric furnace at a temperatxre of 900 - 1400°C.
- the side surface of the body may be coated with a Bi 2 O 3 -Sb 2 O 3 -SiO 2 paste in order to prevent corona discharge and the like along the side surface before the sintering.
- two major surfaces at which electrodes are to be formed are abraded to a desired thickness, followed by the formation of electrodes by a conventional process such as flame spraying, baking of a paste, or the like.
- a glass film is sometimes formed around the side surface in order to improve prevention of discharge along the side surface.
- non-linear resistor is excellent in non-lineality of voltage-current characteristics, but rather poor in stability and there is a problem in that its properties are subjected to deterioration by the load test which is carried out by applying a rated voltage for a long period of time, causing a gradual increase of leakage current and finally inducing thermal runaway.
- the life of non-linear resistor elements used for lightning arresters for transmitting 1200 kV under the conditions of use temperature 40°C, and an applied voltage ratio (AVR) of 80% (100% AVR is the 1 mA voltage at the initial condition) should be longer than 100 years, but non-linear resistor elements having such a long life have not been obtained by using conventional non-linear resistors.
- AVR applied voltage ratio
- This invention provides a non-linear resistor comprising a sintered body having non-linear resistance characteristics and one or more electrodes formed on the upper and/or lower major surfaces of said sintered body, characterized in that one or more continuous films having no gas permeability and lower electrical resistivity than the resistivity of said sintered body are individually formed between the sintered body and one or more electrodes.
- This invention also provides a process for producing a non-linear resistor which comprises
- Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a conventional non-linear resistor
- Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view of a non-linear resistor of this invention
- Fig. 3 is a graph showing a relationship between resistivity and In 2 0 3 content in a mixture of indium oxide and tin oxide which mixture forms the continuous film between the sintered body and an electrode
- Fig. 4 is a graph showing a relationship between a non-linearity coefficient and a heat treatment temperature of a sintered body containing zinc oxide as a major component.
- the continuous film is formed between the sintered body and the electrodes, said film being constructed so dense that it has no gas permeability and having lower electrical resistivity than the resistivity of the sintered body and no y-bismuth oxide phase, various advantages are obtained, particularly by preventing the release of constituting atoms of the sintered body, e.g. oxygen ions or a gas adsorbed in the sintered body, e.g., oxygen gas, from the sintered body at the time of voltage application, which results in giving stability to the properties for a long period of time, e.g. more than 100 years under ordinary conditions.
- constituting atoms of the sintered body e.g. oxygen ions or a gas adsorbed in the sintered body, e.g., oxygen gas
- the continuous film 3 is interposed between the sintered body 1 having non-linear characteristics and the electrode 2.
- the sintered body used in this invention may be any one having non-linear resistance characteristics and showing deterioration in non-linear characteristics by the release of atoms constituting the sintered body or adsorbed gas in the sintered body.
- a sintered body are sintered bodies of oxides such as zinc oxide, titanium oxide, and the like and those of chalcogen such as selenium and the like.
- non-linear resistors containing zinc oxide as a major component are excellent in non-linear resistance characteristics but show the property deterioration at the time of voltage application due to the release of oxygen from crystal grains or crystal boundary layers, so that the effects of this invention are greatly exhibited when this invention is applied to such zinc oxide based non-linear resistors.
- the continuous film 3 formed between the sintered body 1 and the electrode 3 is preferably required to have the following properties:
- the continuous film is good in denseness and adhesion to the sintered body.
- the words "good in denseness” mean that a gas such as oxygen is not permeable through the continuous film.
- the sintered body that having zinc oxide as a major component and as the continuous film that made of indium oxide type compound, tin oxide type compound or a mixture of indium oxide and tin oxide type compounds it is important that the continuous and electroconductive film can be baked on the sintered body at a temperature of 520°C or lower.
- the continuous film is different from y-bismuth oxide phase layer formed on the surface portions of the sintered body.
- the continuous film is low in hygroscopicity so as to produce non-linear resistors which can be used in high humidity.
- the continuous film interposed between the sintered body and the electrode that made of indium oxide or the like compound, tin oxide or the like compound or a mixture of indium oxide and tin oxide or the like compounds.
- the continuous film may contain other components which have thermal expansion coefficients near that of the sintered body so long as not lowering the properties of the film of indium oxide, tin oxide or indium oxide-tin oxide mixture.
- other components are antimony oxide, tantalum oxide, manganese oxide, and the like.
- Thickness of the continuous film changes depending on the kinds of sintered body and materials used for the film.
- a preferable thickness of the continuous film is 1 to 30 ⁇ m in the case of indium oxide, tin oxide or the like compound being used singly and 1 to 50 ⁇ m in the case of a mixture of indium oxide and tin oxide type compounds. It is also preferable to use the continuous film having the same area and shape as the electrode to be formed thereon, considering the prevention of deterioration of the film during the production.
- Zinc oxide sintered body has a thermal expansion coefficient of about 80 x 10 -7 °C -1
- an indium oxide-tin oxide type film has a thermal expansion coefficient of about 160 x 10 -7 °C -1 . Therefore, if the film thickness of the indium oxide-tin oxide type film becomes too large, the film may easily be cracked due to differences of thermal expansion coefficients of the two. Since cracks are easily formed in the film when the film thickness is larger than 50 ⁇ m as shown in Table 10 below, it is preferable to make the film thickness 50 ⁇ m or less.
- the film thickness 1 ⁇ m or more As mentioned above, the film thickness of 1 to 50 ⁇ m is preferable in the case of the film of a mixture of indium oxide and tin oxide type compounds when the sintered body contains zinc oxide as a major component. The same reasons may be applied to the case of the film of indium oxide or tin oxide or the like compound being used singly.
- the sintered body there may be used any sintered body containing zinc oxide as a major component, more concretely 70% by mole or more.
- the sintered body may further contain bismuth oxide and manganese oxide in amounts of 0.01 to 10% by mole, respectively and the resulting sintered body is more preferable.
- Particularly preferable sintered bodies are those containing bismuth oxide, manganese oxide, cobalt oxide, antimony oxide, chromium oxide, boron oxide, silicon oxide and nickel oxide in amounts of 0.01 to 10% by mole, respectively, but not more than 30% by mole as a total in addition to zinc oxide.
- These sintered body can usually be obtained by sintering raw material particles containing zinc oxide at a temperature of 900 to 1400°C. It is preferable that the sintered body contain no or substantially no y-bismuth oxide phase therein even after the heat treatment for baking the continuous film formed on the sintered body.
- the non-linear resistor of this invention can be produced, for example, by the following processes.
- the indium compound and/or tin compound not only indium oxide and tin oxide but also any indium compounds which can yield indium oxide by pyrolysis at a temperature preferably 520°C or lower such as indium nitrate, etc., and any tin compounds which can yield tin oxide by pyrolysis at a temperature preferably 520°C or lower such as tin nitrate, etc.
- a film forming layer may be formed on the sintered body by a conventional process such as a chemical vapor deposition method (CVD), sputtering, a solution coating method such as dipping, brushing, or the like.
- CVD chemical vapor deposition method
- sputtering a solution coating method such as dipping, brushing, or the like.
- the solution coating method when a solution containing above-mentioned raw materials, for example, a solution containing an indium compound and a tin compound, is coated on a major surface electrode forming area of the sintered body, a part of the solution penetrates into the inner portion of the sintered body, while the remaining part of the solution forms a film on the surface.
- the raw materials penetrated into the inner portion of the sintered body fill pores and crystal grain boundaries present near the major surface portions of the sintered body on baking the raw material layer, which results in making greater the preventing effect of the release of atoms constituting the sintered body or the gas adsorbed in the sintered body.
- the raw material layer formed on the electrode forming surface of the sintered body is baked at a temperature of 520°C or lower considering the decrease in non-linearity coefficient and the formation of y-bismuth oxide phase. In order to prevent the lowering in resistance to humidity of the baked film, it is preferable to bake the raw material layer at a temperature of 350°C or higher.
- Electrodes are formed on individual continuous and electroconductive film thus formed by a conventional process such as flame spraying, baking of a paint, etc., to give a non-linear resistor.
- the nonlinear resistor of this invention has excellent stability to the load lifetime test for a long period of time and can be used for voltage stabilizers, surge absorbers, arresters and the like with usual modifications.
- an arrester can be formed by putting a plurality of non-linear resistors piled in a housing means such as a metal tank or an insulator.
- Such an arrester has a long service lifetime and high reliability because of the long lifetime (under continuous AC operating stress) of the non- linear resister used therein.
- a problem in that, due to the floating capacity between the non-linear resistor element and the ground, a strong electric field is applied to the elements in the upper portion to shorten the lifetime of such elements.
- it is usually practiced to provide one or more capacitors or a metallic shield to thereby correct the electric field exerted.
- the non-linear resistor element adopted therein has a long lifetime even if used in a high electric field, it is possible to omit the field corrector element from the mechanism in the housing means.
- the housing means can be reduced in size, it is possible to attain a reduction of size and weight of the arrester and to improve its earth quake resistance.
- the body After coating a Bi 2 O 3 -Sb 2 O 3 -SiO 2 -containing paste on the side surface of the body, the body was sintered in air at 1250°C for 2 hours. During the sintering, the above-mentioned paste was reacted with the zinc oxide to give a highly resistant layer containing Zn 2 SiO 4 and Zn 7 Sb 2 0 12 mainly. Two major surfaces of the sintered body were abraded so as to give a thickness of 3 mm.
- the thus coated sintered body was heat trated (baked) in air at 450°C for 2 hours while raising the temperature to 450°C at a rate of 200°C/hr. After baking, Al electrodes were formed on the indium oxide-tin oxide films by a conventional flame spraying.
