Summary: | SnO2 catalytic pellets doped with 0-10 atomic % lanthanum were developed
by sol gel method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission
electron microscope (TEM), surface analysis (Nitrogen adsorption-desorption) and
scanning electron microscope (SEM). Prior the gas sensor measurement, LabVIEW
software was programmed to interface with the electrometer to get all measured
electrical resistance values. The electrical resistance change of the catalytic pellets
was investigated using volatile organic compound (VOC) vapours i.e. ethanol,
acetone and methanol in the air at the temperatures between 150-350oC. |
