Abstract
A sintered body of a ceramic composition for voltage non-linear resistor is produced by sintering an oxide semiconductor composition comprising a main component of zinc oxide and a minor component at 1100.degree. to 1400.degree. C.; then maintaining the sintered body in an inert gas such as N.sub.2, Ar and so on having an oxygen content of 0.1 to 21 vol. % at the temperature lower than the sintering temperature for a specific time; changing the atmosphere into an inert gas having an oxygen content of lower than 0.02 vol. % at 800.degree. to 1200.degree. C.; and cooling it.
