ZnO Gas Sensor for Testing Vinegar Acid Concentrations
نویسندگان
چکیده
A ZnO gas sensor was successfully prepared by RF sputtering. The maximum sensitivity of the sensor for vinegar test application was at 400oC. The ZnO based sensor showed good sensitivity for vinegar test in the concentration range of 4% to 9%. The work reveals the ability of using ZnO gas sensor to determine the acid concentrations of the vinegars for food requirements.

Synthesis, characterization, and gas sensing properties of In-doped ZnO nanopowders
Indium (1at %) doped ZnO and ZnO nanoparticles have been synthesized via sol gel method. The structural characters of the synthesized nanoparticles have been studied by X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersiveX-ray spectroscopy (EDX). From synthesized nanopowders a tablet was prepared by using the isostatic pressing and then sintered at ...

In this research, Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures were synthesized by low cost hydrothermal method. The grown ZnO nanostructures had a dispersed distribution with nanowire morphology and the specific surface area of about 7 m2.gr-1 which they have crystalized in hexagonal wurtzite structure. ZnO nanowires/polyvinyl alcohol network (ZP) on the epoxy glass substrate with cu-interdigited electrods...

The pellet-type SnO2 sensor was synthesized by the solid state method and the effects of additives such as nano ZnO (1-12 mol %) and nano In2O3 (1-10 mol %) on the CO gas sensitivity of sensor were investigated. The optimum sintering temperature was chosen 800°C because of the porosity content of the samples. The phase analysis and microstructure of the samples were studied by x-ray diffraction...
متن کاملThe Study of Pure and Mn Doped ZnO Nanocrystals for Gas-sensing Applications
ZnO and ZnO: Mn nanocrystals were synthesized via reverse micelle method. The structural properties of nanocrystals were investigated by XRD. The XRD results indicated that the synthesized nanocrystals had a pure wurtzite (hexagonal phase) structure. Resistive gas sensors were fabricated by providing ohmic contacts on the tablet obtained from compressed nanocrystals powder and the installation ...
