Effect of Zn7Sb2O12 pre-synthesis on microstructure and properties of ZnO varistor ceramics
AIP Advances, 2022 In this work, the Zn7Sb2O12 spinel phase is pre-synthesized at 980, 1000, 1020, 1040, and 1060 °C by mixing ZnO and Sb2O3 in a molar ratio of 7:1. ZnO varistors are prepared by replacing Sb2O3 with the Zn7Sb2O12 spinel phase.

Advances in the synthesis of ZnO nanomaterials for varistor devices [PDF]
Journal of Materials Chemistry C, 2013 ZnO based varistors are widely used for overvoltage protection in many electrical and electronic circuits, at voltages ranging from a few to over a million volts. By careful control of the microstructure, through nano-structuring by chemical routes, it should be possible to produce varistors with high breakdown voltage (Vc), as this is proportional to ...
