SENSITIVITY CONDUCTIVITY OF THE CERAMIC ZNO WITH THE ADDITION OF SILVER TO PROPANE-BUTANE MIXTURE

Abstract

The results of the study of gas-sensitive properties of zinc oxide ceramics with the addition of silver to the gaseous propane-butane mixture used as an automotive fuel. It is shown that silver does not directly play a significant role in the electron-molecular processes on the ceramic surface, but its addition leads to decrease in the density of the samples and therefore an increase in surface area, which in turn leads to an increase in gas sensitivity. On the basis of comparative data on sensitivity to propane-butane mixture of other materials The usefulness of a ceramic ZnO with addition of Ag.
