摘要
Effects of gas diffusivity and reactivity on gas-sensing properties of porous thick him SnO2-based sensors have been investigated by employing several kinds of objective gases. The interior of a pure SnO2 sensor was confirmed to exhibit higher sensitivity to H-2 than the surface. A reverse tendency was observed for CH4 or C2H5OH with larger molecular size than O-2. Excess enhancement in catalytic activity of sensor materials, for example by loading 1.0 wt% Pt or Pd, resulted in deterioration of the interior H-2 sensitivity, while the interior CH4 or C2H5OH sensitivity was enhanced by the Pt or Pd loading. Loading of 1.0 wt% Au led to significant enhancement in both the interior and the surface H-2 sensitivity, irrespective of the small chemical sensitization effect of Au.
