Abstract
A novel polymer positive temperature coefficient (PPTC) material, device, and method of fabrication. One example of polymer positive temperature coefficient (PPTC) includes a polymer matrix, the polymer matrix comprising a first polymer. The PPTC material may further include a conductive filler, disposed in the polymer matrix; and at least one polymer filler, dispersed within the polymer matrix. The at least one polymer filler may comprise a second polymer, different from the first polymer, wherein the at least one polymer comprises a first melting temperature, and wherein the second polymer comprises a second melting temperature, the second melting temperature exceeding the first melting temperature by at least 20 C.
