TEM and XRD showed that the SnO 2 crystallines were less than 8 nm in diameter together with a narrow particle size distribution. BET showed that the surface area of SnO 2 was 115.2 m 2/g. FTIR spectra revealed that the absorptions of Sn—O and —OH bonds in SnO 2 ultrafine powders were red-shifted and broadened. According to the curve of TG-DTA, SnC 2O 4 transformed into SnO 2 completely after being calcined at 250 ℃. Further gas sensing experiments testified that the response and recovery times to C 2H 5OH were shorter than those obtained by the conventional precipitation method.展开更多

摘要Ⅰ. INTRODUCTION As nanosolid is compacted from ultrafine particles, a large volume fraction of the material is constituted by grain boundaries or interfaces. Because of the small size and boundary effects, the properties of nanosolids are superior to those of the traditional materials with the same compositions. The gas sensing properties of"nano SnO2 solids are high sensitivity and rapid respgnding speed, which increase with the decrease of crystal grain size.
