摘要:
A temperature compensating capacitor of monolithic or multilayered configuration comprising a dielectric ceramic body and at least two electrodes buried therein. The ceramic body is composed of a major ingredient expressed by the formula, {(Sr 1-x Ca x )O} k (Ti 1-y Zr y )O 2 , where x, k and y are numerals in the ranges of 0.005 to 0.995 inclusive, 1.00 to 1.04 inclusive, and 0.005 to 0.100 inclusive, respectively. To this major ingredient is added a minor proportion of a mixture of lithium oxide, silicon dioxide, and one or more metal oxides selected from among barium oxide, magnesium oxide, zinc oxide, strontium oxide and calcium oxide. For the fabrication of capacitors the mixture of the above major ingredient and additives in finely divided form are formed into moldings of desired shape and size, each with at least two electrodes buried therein. The moldings and electrodes are cosintered in a reductive or neutral atmosphere and then are reheated at a lower temperature in an oxidative atmosphere. The cosintering temperature can be so low that nickel or like base metal can be employed as the electrode material.

A monolithic ceramic capacitor having a higher DC breakdown voltage per unit thickness of the dielectric ceramic body than heretofore. The major ingredient of the ceramic is expressed as {(Ba 1-x-y Ca x SR y )O} k (Ti 1-z =Zr z )O 2 , where x, y, z and k are numerals in the ranges specified herein. To this major ingredient is added a minor proportion of a mixture of boric oxide, silicon dioxide, and lithium oxide. The relative proportions of these additives are also specified. For the fabrication of capacitors having dielectric bodies of the above composition, the moldings of the mixture of the major ingredient and additives in the specified proportions are sintered to maturity in a reductive or neutral atmosphere and then reheated at a lower temperature in an oxidative atmosphere. The sintering temperature can be so low (1000-1200°C.) that the moldings can be cosintered with base metal electrodes buried therein.

@ A ceramic composition capable of sintering at a sufficiently low temperature to enable the use of a low cost base metal as the electrode material in the fabrication of capacitors. The major ingredient of the composition is expressed as Ba k-x M x O k TiO 2 , where M is one or more of magnesium, zinc, strontium, and calcium, and where k, and x are numerals in the ranges of 1.00 to 1.04, and 0.02 to 0.05, respectively. To this major ingredient is added a minor proportion of a mixture of boron oxide and at least one of barium oxide, magnesium oxide, zinc oxide, strontium oxide, and calcium oxide. For the fabrication of coherently bonded bodies of this composition, as for use as the dielectric bodies of capacitors, the moldings of the mixture of the major ingredient and additive in finely divided form are sintered in a reductive or neu-tral atmosphere and then reheated at a lower temperature in an oxidative atmosphere. The sintering temperature can be so low (typically from 1050° to 1200° C.) that the moldings can be co-sintered with base metal electrodes buried therein without difficulties encountered heretofore.

Ceramic materials suitable for use in varistors, enabling the same to function not only as such but also as capacitors. The ceramic materials comprise a major proportion of SrTi0 3 , the balance being: (1) at least one of Nb 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 , W0 3 . La 2 O 3 , Ce0 2 , Nd 2 O 3 . Y 2 O 3 , Pr 6 O 11 , Sm 2 O 3 , E U2 0 3 . and Dy 2 O 3 , for making the materials semiconductive; (2) Na 2 O, for making surge-proof the varistors made from the ceramic materials and for improving their nonlinearity coefficients; and (3) Al 2 O 3 , for improving the temperature dependences of the varistor voltages, as well as nonlinearity coefficients, of the varistors. Optionally the ceramic materials may further contain one or more of Ag 2 O, CuO, MnO 2 , and SiO 2 , for still higher nonlinearity coefficients. Containing Al 2 O 3 in proportions ranging from 0.01 to 1.50 mole parts with respect to 100 mole parts of SrTi0 3 , the ceramic compositions make possible the provision of varistors having varistor voltages that hardly change in a temperature range as wide as, for example from -40° to +120°C.

A dielectric ceramic material composed of primary and secondary ingredients forming in combination a polycrystalline ceramic proper, and of insulating substances diffused throughout the intergranular boundaries of the ceramic proper for an increase in apparent relative dielectric constant. The primary ingredients comprise, in relative proportions, 90.68-99.80 wt. % SrTi0 3 , 0.07-5.32 wt. % of at least one of Nb 2 0 5 , W0 3 and Ta 2 O 5 , and 0.02-4.00 wt. % of at least one of GeO 2 , ZnO and CuO. The secondary ingredients comprise 0.02-0.10 wt. part Si0 2 and 0.01-0.03 wt. part Al 2 O 3 with respect to 100 wt. parts of the primary ingredients, with the weight ratio of Si0 2 to Al 2 O 3 being from 1.5 to 5.0. The insulating substances comprise 0.02-2.90 wt. % PbO, 0.10-4.38 wt. % Bi 2 O 3 , and 0.001-0.18 wt. % B 2 0 3 with respect to the total weight of the primary and the secondary ingredients. In the fabrication of bodies of the ceramic the mixture of the insulating substances is coated or otherwise layered on polycrystalline ceramic bodies prepared from the primary and secondary ingredients. The coated ceramic bodies are then heated to cause diffusion of the insulating substances throughout their intergranular boundaries.

Ceramic materials suitable for use in varistors, enabling the same to function both as such and as capacitors. The ceramic compositions comprise a major proportion of SrTiO 3 , the balance being (1) one or more of Nb 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 , W0 3 , La 2 O 3 , CeO 2 , Nd 2 0 3 , Pr 6 O 11 , Dy 2 0 3 , Y 2 O 3 , and Sm 2 0 3 , for making the compositions semiconductive, and (2) one or more of V 2 O 5 , Cr 2 O 3 , CuO, Cu 2 O, MoO 3 , and MnO 2 , for improving the nonlinear volt-ampere characteristic of the compositions. If desired, for improving the coherency of bodies molded from the composition, there can be added one or more of GeO 2 , ZnO, B 2 0 3 , and PbO. For use as varistors the mixture of the above ingredients, all in finely divided form and made coherent with a binder, is molded into desired shape under pressure. The moldings are first fired in a nonoxidative atmosphere and then further heated in an oxidative atmosphere. Electrodes can be formed as by silver painting.
摘要:
An electroconductive paste consists essentially of 100 parts by weight of zinc in finely divided form, from about 0.01 to 10.00 parts by weight of a glass frit such as, typically, that of PbO-B 2 0 3 -SiO 2 composition, from about 0.01 to 14.99 parts by weight of an organotitanium compound such as tetrakisstearoxytitanium, and a vehicle such as alpha-terpineol containing ethylcellulose as an organic binder, for pasting the mixture of the zinc powder, glass frit and organotitanium compound. The paste may contain an additive or additives such as the oxides of some metallic elements. By being fired on ceramic bodies at a temperature above the melting point of zinc, the paste forms conductors or electrodes of ceramic capacitors, varistors or the like. The capacitors or varistors having their conductors or electrodes thus prepared from the zinc paste are approximately equivalent in electrical and mechanical properties to those having their conductors or electrodes fabricated from a conventional silver paste.
