Abstract
Description
本発明は、酸化亜鉛(ZnO)バリスタ、特に、アンチモン(Sb)添加酸化亜鉛バリスタを製造する方法に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a method for producing a zinc oxide (ZnO) varistor, particularly an antimony (Sb) -added zinc oxide varistor.
ZnOバリスタは、粒界付近に形成される電気的障壁により急峻な電圧−電流特性を有し、避雷器や電子機器の保護素子として広く利用されている。しかし、ZnOバリスタは、継続使用されると電気的ストレスを受けて特性が低下する。これは課電劣化と呼ばれ、ZnO粒界を酸素イオンあるいは格子間Znイオンあるいはその両方が移動することによって電気的障壁が歪むことが原因であると考えられている。 ZnO varistors have steep voltage-current characteristics due to electrical barriers formed in the vicinity of grain boundaries, and are widely used as lightning arresters and protective devices for electronic devices. However, when the ZnO varistor is continuously used, the characteristics are deteriorated due to electrical stress. This is called electrical degradation, and is considered to be caused by distortion of the electrical barrier caused by movement of oxygen ions, interstitial Zn ions, or both through ZnO grain boundaries.
ところで、現在市販されている高電圧用ZnOバリスタには、バリスタ電圧を制御する目的で三酸化アンチモン(Sb2O3)が付加されているが、Sbは有毒であり、環境負荷が大きいので、Sbの添加量ができるだけ少なく、しかも課電劣化特性に優れたZnOバリスタが望まれている。なお、現在市販されている高電圧用ZnOバリスタには、Sbとケイ素(Si)が、それぞれ2.6mol%、3.6mol%程度用いられている。 By the way, in the ZnO varistor for high voltage currently on the market, antimony trioxide (Sb 2 O 3 ) is added for the purpose of controlling the varistor voltage, but Sb is toxic and has a large environmental load. A ZnO varistor in which the amount of Sb added is as small as possible and is excellent in the electric charge deterioration characteristics is desired. In addition, about 2.6 mol% and 3.6 mol% of Sb and silicon (Si) are used in ZnO varistors for high voltage currently on the market, respectively.
これまでの研究により、Sbの課電劣化特性に及ぼす影響を調べた結果、Sb添加により形成される双晶により、ZnO結晶の方位が変化し、それに伴って課電劣化が抑制されることが知られている(非特許文献1参照)。
また、ZnOバリスタにSb2O3と二酸化ケイ素(SiO2)をそれぞれ1.6mol%以上添加することによって、約220V/mmのバリスタ電圧を得ることができ、また、SiO2を添加することで、非線形指数が小さくなることが知られている(非特許文献2参照)。
As a result of investigating the influence of Sb on the voltage degradation characteristics by previous studies, the twin crystal formed by the addition of Sb changes the orientation of the ZnO crystal, and accordingly, the voltage degradation is suppressed. It is known (see Non-Patent Document 1).
Also, by adding 1.6 mol% or more of Sb 2 O 3 and silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) to the ZnO varistor, a varistor voltage of about 220 V / mm can be obtained, and by adding SiO 2 It is known that the nonlinear index becomes smaller (see Non-Patent Document 2).
しかしながら、これらの従来の製造方法においては、Sbを3.2mol%以上添加する必要があり、これより少ないSb添加量で、高いバリスタ電圧および高い非線形指数を有し、課電劣化特性に優れたZnOバリスタを製造することは難しかった。 However, in these conventional manufacturing methods, it is necessary to add Sb in an amount of 3.2 mol% or more. With a smaller amount of Sb added, the varistor voltage is high and the nonlinear index is high, and the electric charging deterioration characteristics are excellent. It was difficult to manufacture a ZnO varistor.
したがって、本発明の課題は、Sbの添加量ができるだけ少なく、高いバリスタ電圧を有し、高い非線形指数を有し、課電劣化特性に優れたZnOバリスタを提供することにある。 Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a ZnO varistor having as little Sb addition as possible, a high varistor voltage, a high non-linear index, and excellent electric charging deterioration characteristics.
上記課題を解決するため、本発明は、酸化亜鉛98.8mol%、酸化ビスマス0.5mol%、酸化マンガン0.5mol%、4酸化3コバルト0.2mol%およびアンチモンの水溶性塩200〜2400ppmに、平均粒径5〜10nmの二酸化ケイ素100〜1500ppmを添加したものを湿式混合し、得られた混合物を仮焼成した後粉砕し、粉砕物を加圧成形し、得られた成形物を本焼成することによってアンチモン添加酸化亜鉛バリスタを製造する方法を構成したものである。ここで、ppmはmolppmを意味する。以下同様である。 In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides zinc oxide 98.8 mol%, bismuth oxide 0.5 mol%, manganese oxide 0.5 mol%, tetracobalt trioxide 0.2 mol%, and antimony water-soluble salt 200-2400 ppm. A mixture of 100 to 1500 ppm of silicon dioxide having an average particle size of 5 to 10 nm is wet-mixed, the resulting mixture is temporarily fired and then pulverized, the pulverized product is pressure-molded, and the resulting molded product is subjected to main firing. Thus, a method for producing an antimony-added zinc oxide varistor is constituted. Here, ppm means molppm. The same applies hereinafter.
上記構成において、前記アンチモンの水溶性塩は、塩化アンチモンまたは硝酸アンチモンであることが好ましい。また、前記湿式混合は、水またはエタノールを使用して行うことが好ましい。
また、前記仮焼成は、空気中において500〜800℃の温度で行い、前記本焼成は、空気中において1100〜1200℃の温度で行うことが好ましい。
In the above configuration, the water-soluble salt of antimony is preferably antimony chloride or antimony nitrate. The wet mixing is preferably performed using water or ethanol.
Moreover, it is preferable that the said temporary baking is performed at the temperature of 500-800 degreeC in the air, and the said main baking is performed at the temperature of 1100-1200 degreeC in the air.
本発明によれば、Sbの添加量ができるだけ少なく、高いバリスタ電圧を有し、高い非線形指数を有し、課電劣化特性に優れたZnOバリスタを製造することができる。 According to the present invention, it is possible to manufacture a ZnO varistor having as little Sb addition as possible, a high varistor voltage, a high non-linear exponent, and excellent electrical charging deterioration characteristics.
以下、添付図面を参照して本発明の好ましい実施例について説明する。 Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
図1は、本発明の1実施例によるZnOバリスタの製造方法のフロー図である。
図1に示すように、本発明によれば、まず酸化亜鉛98.8mol%、酸化ビスマス0.5mol%、酸化マンガン0.5mol%、4酸化3コバルト0.2mol%およびアンチモンの水溶性塩200〜2400ppmに、ナノ粒子(例えば、平均粒径5〜10nm)の二酸化ケイ素100〜1500ppmを添加したものを湿式混合する(図1のステップS1)。
ここで、アンチモンの水溶性塩として、塩化アンチモン(SbCl3)または硝酸アンチモンを使用する。また、湿式混合は、例えば、水又はエタノールを使用してボールミルにより所定時間行う。
FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a method for manufacturing a ZnO varistor according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 1, according to the present invention, first, zinc oxide 98.8 mol%, bismuth oxide 0.5 mol%, manganese oxide 0.5 mol%, tetroxide 3 mol 0.2 mol%, and antimony water-soluble salt 200 A mixture obtained by adding 100 to 1500 ppm of silicon dioxide having a nanoparticle (for example, an average particle diameter of 5 to 10 nm) to ˜2400 ppm is wet-mixed (step S <b> 1 in FIG. 1).
Here, antimony chloride (SbCl 3 ) or antimony nitrate is used as a water-soluble salt of antimony. Moreover, wet mixing is performed for a predetermined time with a ball mill using water or ethanol, for example.
次に、ステップS1で得た混合物を仮焼成する(図1のステップS2)。
仮焼成は、具体的には、空気中で500〜800℃の温度で所定時間行う。
Next, the mixture obtained in step S1 is temporarily fired (step S2 in FIG. 1).
Specifically, the preliminary baking is performed in air at a temperature of 500 to 800 ° C. for a predetermined time.
その後、ステップS2で得た仮焼成物を粉砕する(図1のステップS3)。
粉砕は、例えば、超硬乳鉢を用いて行う。
Thereafter, the temporarily fired product obtained in step S2 is pulverized (step S3 in FIG. 1).
The pulverization is performed using, for example, a cemented mortar.
そして、ステップS3で得た粉砕物を加圧成形する(図1のステップS4)。
この場合、例えば、真空加圧で直径20mmの円板状に成形する。
Then, the pulverized material obtained in step S3 is pressure-molded (step S4 in FIG. 1).
In this case, for example, it is formed into a disk shape having a diameter of 20 mm by vacuum pressing.
さらに、上記の成形物を本焼成することによりZnOバリスタを形成する(図1のステップS5)。
本焼成は、具体的には、空気中において1100〜1200℃の温度で所定時間行う。
Furthermore, a ZnO varistor is formed by subjecting the above molded product to main firing (step S5 in FIG. 1).
Specifically, the main baking is performed in air at a temperature of 1100 to 1200 ° C. for a predetermined time.
次に、本発明の方法によって、ZnOバリスタを実際に製造し、所期の効果が得られるかどうかを調べた。

[Comparison study 2]
Various characteristics of the ZnO varistors in Examples 5 to 8 and Comparative Example 2 were examined. For each sample, the non-linear exponent α before the deterioration of electric charge, the non-linear exponent α after the deterioration of electric charge (α 30 min ), the area intensity of the (002) plane of the ZnO crystal, and the varistor voltage were measured.

FIG. 7 is a graph showing measurement results of varistor voltages of ZnO varistors in Examples 5 to 8 and Comparative Example 2.
ここで、非線形指数αの値は、10−8〜10−4Aの電流範囲で定電流法により電圧−電流特性を測定して、以下の式1を用いて算出した。
また、課電劣化前後の測定には同じ試料を用いた。試料は、空気中で直流電流100mA/cm2を、合計時間で30分間流して課電劣化させた。
Here, the value of the nonlinear index α was calculated by using the following equation 1 by measuring the voltage-current characteristic by a constant current method in a current range of 10 −8 to 10 −4 A.
In addition, the same sample was used for the measurement before and after the degradation of electric power. The sample was subjected to voltage degradation by applying a direct current of 100 mA / cm 2 for 30 minutes in the air.
図2から判るように、実施例1〜4のZnOバリスタの非線形指数αの値は約40〜60であり、比較例1のZnOバリスタと同程度の高い非線形性を有する試料が得られた。 As can be seen from FIG. 2, the values of the nonlinear index α of the ZnO varistors of Examples 1 to 4 are about 40 to 60, and samples having high nonlinearity comparable to that of the ZnO varistor of Comparative Example 1 were obtained.
図3から判るように、各ZnOバリスタの課電劣化30分後の非線形指数αの値は、比較例1のZnOバリスタにおいては約7であるのに対し、実施例1〜4のZnOバリスタにおいてはSiの添加量を増加するに従い増加し、特に実施例3のZnOバリスタにおいて約35となり極大値を示した。また、(002)面の面積強度は、Siの添加量を増加するに従い強くなっているのが判る。これは、Siの添加により、粒界での表面自由エネルギーに変化が起こり、ZnO結晶の方位に影響が出たため課電劣化が抑えられた結果であると考えられる。 As can be seen from FIG. 3, the value of the nonlinear index α after 30 minutes of degradation of the voltage applied to each ZnO varistor is about 7 in the ZnO varistor of Comparative Example 1, whereas in the ZnO varistors of Examples 1 to 4. Increased as the amount of Si added was increased. In particular, the ZnO varistor of Example 3 was about 35, showing a maximum value. It can also be seen that the area strength of the (002) plane increases as the amount of Si added increases. This is considered to be a result of suppressing the deterioration of electric charging because the addition of Si causes a change in the surface free energy at the grain boundary and affects the orientation of the ZnO crystal.
図4から判るように、実施例1〜4のZnOバリスタのバリスタ電圧は約220V/mm以上であり、比較例1のZnOバリスタのバリスタ電圧である約165V/mmに比べて、十分高いバリスタ電圧を有する試料が得られた。特に、実施例2のZnOバリスタのバリスタ電圧は、約240V/mmと極大値を示した。これは、小さな平均粒径の二酸化ケイ素の添加によるZnO粒子の粒成長抑制効果が無くても、双晶境界面などに新たな障壁が形成されること等が原因であると考えられる。 As can be seen from FIG. 4, the varistor voltage of the ZnO varistors of Examples 1 to 4 is about 220 V / mm or more, which is sufficiently higher than the varistor voltage of about 165 V / mm, which is the varistor voltage of the ZnO varistor of Comparative Example 1. A sample with was obtained. In particular, the varistor voltage of the ZnO varistor of Example 2 showed a maximum value of about 240 V / mm. This is considered to be due to the fact that a new barrier is formed at the twin interface even if there is no effect of suppressing the growth of ZnO particles due to the addition of silicon dioxide having a small average particle diameter.
図5から判るように、実施例5〜8のZnOバリスタの非線形指数αの値は約40〜50であり、実施例1〜4のZnOバリスタと同程度の高い非線形性を有する試料が得られた。 As can be seen from FIG. 5, the non-linear index α of the ZnO varistors of Examples 5 to 8 is about 40 to 50, and a sample having high non-linearity similar to that of the ZnO varistors of Examples 1 to 4 is obtained. It was.
図6から判るように、各ZnOバリスタの課電劣化30分後の非線形指数αの値は、比較例2のZnOバリスタにおいては約16であるのに対し、実施例5〜7のZnOバリスタにおいてはSiの添加量を増加するに従い増加し、特に実施例5のZnOバリスタにおいて約24となり極大値を示した。また、(002)面の面積強度は、Siの添加量を増加するに従い弱くなっているのが判る。これは、Siの添加により、粒界での表面自由エネルギーに変化が起こり、ZnO結晶の方位に影響が出たため課電劣化が抑えられた結果であると考えられる。 As can be seen from FIG. 6, the value of the nonlinear index α after 30 minutes of degradation of the voltage applied to each ZnO varistor is about 16 in the ZnO varistor of Comparative Example 2, whereas in the ZnO varistors of Examples 5-7. Increased as the amount of Si added increased, and in particular, the ZnO varistor of Example 5 was about 24, indicating a maximum value. It can also be seen that the area strength of the (002) plane becomes weaker as the amount of Si added is increased. This is considered to be a result of suppressing the deterioration of electric charging because the addition of Si causes a change in the surface free energy at the grain boundary and affects the orientation of the ZnO crystal.
図7から判るように、実施例6〜8のZnOバリスタのバリスタ電圧は約160V/mm以上であり、比較例2のZnOバリスタのバリスタ電圧である約120V/mmに比べて、十分高いバリスタ電圧を有する試料が得られた。このように、Sbの添加量が200ppmのZnOバリスタにおいても、二酸化ケイ素の添加によりバリスタ電圧を増加させる試料が得られた。 As can be seen from FIG. 7, the varistor voltages of the ZnO varistors of Examples 6 to 8 are about 160 V / mm or more, which is sufficiently higher than the varistor voltage of about 120 V / mm which is the varistor voltage of the ZnO varistor of Comparative Example 2. A sample with was obtained. As described above, a sample in which the varistor voltage was increased by the addition of silicon dioxide was obtained even in the ZnO varistor having the Sb addition amount of 200 ppm.
さらに、実施例3が最もよい課電劣化特性であったので、Sbの添加量をどの程度減らせるかを検討するため、以下のZnOバリスタを製造した。

Furthermore, since Example 3 had the best electrical degradation characteristics, the following ZnO varistors were manufactured in order to examine how much the amount of Sb added can be reduced.

The mixture obtained was wet-mixed for 24 hours using a ball mill, and the resulting mixture was calcined in air at 600 ° C. for 3 hours and then pulverized, and the pulverized product was formed into a disk shape having a diameter of 20 mm by vacuum pressing. The obtained molded product was finally fired in air at 1150 ° C. for 3 hours to produce a ZnO varistor.
