To provide a manufacturing method for a laminated ceramic component capable of forming an external electrode with a suppressed moon shape. The manufacturing method for the laminated ceramic component includes a first step, a second step, a third step, a fourth step, and a fifth step. In the first step, a laminate that a plurality of ceramic green sheets and a plurality of internal electrode paste layers are laminated is prepared. In the second step, the laminate is fired to form a ceramic element body. In the third step, plasma treatment is performed on a surface of the ceramic element body. In the fourth step, an external electrode paste is attached to a part of the surface of the ceramic element body after the third step. In the fifth step, the ceramic element body after the fourth step is subjected to the heat treatment to form an external electrode.

A multilayer varistor includes a sintered body, a first external electrode, a second external electrode, a first internal electrode, a second internal electrode, and a high-resistivity portion. The first internal electrode is provided inside the sintered body and electrically connected to the first external electrode. The second internal electrode is provided inside the sintered body and electrically connected to the second external electrode. The high-resistivity portion includes: a surface high-resistivity portion provided to cover a surface of the sintered body; and an inner high-resistivity portion extended inward from the surface high-resistivity portion inside the sintered body.

Disclosed is a method for improving anti-reduction performance of a PTC thermosensitive element, including coating an inorganic protective layer, organic protective layer, or organic and inorganic composite protective layer coated with a mixture of an inorganic substance and an organic substance for blocking harmful reducing gases from entering an interior of a ceramic body through surface defects or grain boundaries of the ceramic body onto the surface of a PTC thermosensitive element based on barium lead titanate. Advantages: by coating the inorganic protective layer, organic protective layer, or organic and inorganic composite protective layer coated with the mixture of the inorganic substance and the organic substance onto the surface of the PTC thermosensitive element based on barium lead titanate to form an isolation protective layer for blocking reducing harmful gases from entering the interior of the ceramic body through the surface defects or grain boundaries of the ceramic body.
