Abstract

ZnO nanopowders were synthesized by the sol-gel method using hydrazine reduction, and their gas responses to 6 gases (200 ppm of $C_2H_5OH$, $CH_3COCH_3$, $H_2$, $C_3H_8$, 100 ppm of CO, and 5 ppm of $NO_2$) were measured at $300\;{\sim}\;400^{\circ}C$. The prepared ZnO nanopowders showed high gas responses to $C_2H_5OH$ and $CH_3COCH_3$ at $400^{\circ}C$. The sensing materials prepared at the compositions of [$ZnCl_2$]:[$N_2H_4$]:[NaOH] = 1:1:1 and 1:2:2 showed particularly high gas responses ($S\;=\;R_a/R_g,\;R_a$ : resistance in air, $R_g$ : resistance in gas) to 200 ppm of $C_2H_5OH$($S\;=\;102.8{\sim}160.7$) and 200 ppm of $CH_3COCH_3$($S\;= 72.6{\sim}166.2$), while they showed low gas responses to $H_2$, $C_3H_8$, CO, and $NO_2$. The reason for high sensitivity to these 2 gases was discussed in relation to the reaction mechanism, oxidation state, surface area, and particle morphology of the sensing materials.
