In another side, carbon nanotubes (CNT) have many distinct properties and recently have been exploited as the next generation of sensors, including chemoresisitive type gas sensors. This study was aimed to investigate the performance of MWNT-ZnO composites as harmful gas sensitive layer. By fabricate composites of MWNT and ZnO, have been obtained a sensitive layer that can be utilized for application as gas sensitive layer with relatively lower operating temperature. A sensitive layer of MWNT-ZnO based composites have been successfully fabricated on a alumina substrate and several characterization techniques has been performed, i.e. XRD, SEM and EDS to study the formed crystalline phase, the morphology of the nanostructures, and the elemental composition of synthesized composites. MWNT-ZnO sensitive layer was tested by exposure to SO2 gas at various operating temperatures and gas concentration. From the performance testing results, it could be found that the composite materials have a prospective as a gas sensor at relatively lower operating temperature with short response time and good sensitivity.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Characterization techniques,Chemo-resistive gas sensors,Elemental compositions,Gas sensing properties,High operating temperature,Metal oxide semiconductor,Modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes,Operating temperature[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Dynamic response of sensor,Gas sensor,Multi-walled carbon nanotubes,Sulfur dioxide,Zinc oxide[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMR.1044-1045.172[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
