Abstract :
The aim of the paper is to present results of design gas sensor with different form of polyaniline active layer for toxic gases detection. Sensing of toxic gases is very important in many applications. Automotive, defence, aerospace, agriculture, chemical industry, medicine, environmental, food and drink are many important markets for chemical and biological sensors. The advantages of resistive sensors are easy fabrication, simple operation and low production cost. Using of polymer film causes that this sensor is not required heating of active layer. This leads to reduce power consumption. Active layer is operated at room temperature.
