Abstract
The properties of sensors manufactured by strong pressing of SnO2 have been studied. The correlation between the pressing pressure of SnO2 and sensiti vity and stability was established. The results show that when the pressing pressure of SnO2 increases, the stability of sensors increases too, but th e sensitivity strongly decreases. The best sensors performance is achieved by strong pressing (4000 MPa) of SnO2 with 40 wt.% content of Al2O3. (C) 20 01 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
