Abstract

NOx sensing properties of Ba2WO5 were investigated in an effort to search for a new sensor material operative at high temperatures. Ba2WO5 was prepared from WO3 and BaCO3, and packed and sintered to fabricate disk-type sensor elements. Ba2WO5 exhibits neck-controlled conduction and provides highest sensitivity of 47 and 29 at 500 to 200 ppm NO and 80 ppm NO2, respectively. The samples sintered beyond 800 shows the gas sensitivity independent of the sintering temperature. This may be due to the fact that the open neck control is dominant for the specimens sintered at temperatures higher than 800°C. From the response transient to NO and NO2 and MO2(g)+e→NO2 andNO(g)+O(ads) +e→NO2 are proposed as possible reactions occurring on the surface of Ba2WO5 in the presence of NO and NO2 gases.
