Abstract: | A new method of preparing porous (Ba,Sr)TiO3 ceramics has been introduced, using an ordinary ceramics processing technique. The effect of corn-starch on the positive temperature coefficient of resistivity characteristics and microstructure of the porous (Ba,Sr)TiO3 ceramics has been investigated. When the corn-starch addition was 1-20 wt%, the PTCR jump was over 106 and 1-2 orders higher than that of samples without corn-starch. Also, it was found that the (Ba,Sr)TiO3 ceramics had porous microstructure by the addition of corn-starch. The porosity of the ceramics with 20 wt% corn-starch was 44%. The electrical properties of the (Ba,Sr)TiO3 ceramics have been discussed, based on the microstructure, resistivity of grain boundaries, donor concentration of grains and the electrical potential barrier of grain boundaries. |
