Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily control the specific resistance of semiconductor porcelain by roasting a powdery raw material in the natural atmosphere to obtain semiconductor porcelain having low specific resistance and heat-treating this semiconductor porcelain at the specified temp. in the atmosphere having oxygen partial pressure larger than the natural atmosphere. CONSTITUTION:A powdery raw material for barium titanate-based semiconductor porcelain is molded into a prescribed shape. This molded body is roasted in the natural atmosphere to obtain the stock of semiconductor porcelain having the low specific resistance. This stock is heat-treated at the temp. of at least 1100 deg.C and not higher than the temp. at a time of the above-mentioned roasting in the oxygen-enriched gaseous atmosphere having oxygen partial pressure larger than the natural atmosphere. By this method, the specific resistance of semiconductor porcelain is easily controlled and furthermore the various characteristics such as resistance to puncture voltage and load service life are remarkably enhanced. Further heat treatment is performed in a short time at the temp. not higher than the roasting temp.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, when mass producing barium titanate-based semiconductor porcelain, the above-mentioned conditions during firing must be reset for each loft with a different target resistivity. There was a problem of decreased sex. In addition, as a means of adjusting resistivity, changing the firing degree, holding time, etc. has been used, but although this method can produce semiconductor porcelain with a desired resistivity, it may cause abnormal grain growth, etc. The current situation is that this has resulted in a decline in the breakdown voltage, load test, etc.

That is, the gist of the present invention is to form raw material powder for barium titanate-based semiconductor porcelain into a predetermined shape, sinter it in a natural atmosphere to form a semiconductor porcelain body with low resistivity, and then:
A method for manufacturing barium titanate-based semiconductor porcelain, characterized in that heat treatment is carried out at a temperature of 1100°C, which is lower than the firing temperature, in an oxygen-rich gas atmosphere having a higher oxygen partial pressure than the natural atmosphere.

Firing in the first stage to form a low resistivity semiconductor porcelain body is carried out for 1 to 5 hours at a temperature at which barium titanate semiconductor porcelain is sintered, usually in the air at a temperature of 1200 to 1400°C. .

The heat treatment as the second step for forming the semiconductor porcelain is carried out in an oxygen gas atmosphere, that is, an oxygen partial pressure is 2.
It is carried out in a gas atmosphere within the range of 0 to 100 vol %, and the temperature is above II00° C. and below the firing temperature of the first stage.

In the second stage of heat treatment, the oxygen partial pressure of the atmosphere is set to 20~
The range of 100 vol% was chosen because the atmosphere during the first step of firing was a natural atmosphere with an oxygen partial pressure of about 20 vol%, and if heat treatment was performed in an atmosphere with an oxygen partial pressure lower than this, titanium This is because not only the resistivity of barium oxide semiconductor ceramics decreases, but also the resistance temperature characteristics deteriorate significantly.

In addition, the temperature of the second stage heat treatment was set to 1100°C or higher, and the first stage
The reason for setting the firing temperature below the first stage is that the resistivity of the barium titanate semiconductor porcelain does not change if the heat treatment is performed at a temperature below 1100°C, and abnormal grains may occur if the heat treatment is performed at a temperature exceeding the first stage firing temperature. This is because growth occurs and breakdown voltage characteristics deteriorate.
