This current must be measured under steady state conditions that is neither a charging current nor a space charge buildup.
Ceramic volume resistivity.
Ceramic materials offer a number of benefits in a variety of applications.
Macor dc volume resistivity macor is an outstanding engineering material and is machinable with ordinary metalworking tools.
Quartz and macor glass ceramics are better insulators with resistivity values of over 1 10 16.
Silicon carbide is the least insulating ceramic with resistivity of around 1 10 6 or even less for certain forms of cvd sic.
Macor is also a problem solving material combining the performance of a technical ceramic with the versatility of a high performance plastic.
Volume resistivity electrical properties.
Resistivity is commonly represented by the greek letter ρ.
1 10 10 and zirconia 1 10 9.
Engineered ceramics tend to have high volume resistivity even at high temperatures although some ceramic materials are engineered purposefully to allow some charge through typically referred to as electrostatic discharge safe or esd safe ceramics lengthening the life of the material or protecting sensitive objects it contacts.
