Sensing of Organic Vapors by Flame-Made TiO2 Nanoparticles

Teleki A., Pratsinis S.E., Kalyanasundaram K., Gouma P.I., ETH Zürich, CH

Nanostructured anatase TiO2 was produced by flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) and tested for sensing of volatile organic compounds and CO at 500 °C. The as-prepared powders were characterized by transmission/scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and [...]
