A study was carried out on the effect of palladium additives to nanosized stannic oxide on the electrical resistance in air and hydrogen, sensitivity to H2, and the response and relaxation time of sensors containing the nanosized semiconductor, Pd/SnO2. The introduction of palladium leads to enhanced sensitivity of the sensors to H2 and improved response and recovery time.
