The influence of environment humidity on electrical parameters is one of th
e basic disadvantages of the described SnO2 sensors. Due to complex researc
h, the authors have managed to work out cermet composition (SnO2-Pt-black)
which eliminates humidity influence on methane detection. In this paper, th
e basic characteristics of this latest methane sensor are presented. (C) 19
