Abstract

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.
