--- res: bibo_abstract: - The synthesis and characterization of ordered mesoporous In2O3 materials by structure replication from hexagonal mesoporous SBA-15 silica and cubic KIT-6 silica is presented. Variation of the synthesis parameters allows for different pore sizes and pore wall thicknesses in the products. The In2O3 samples turn out to be stable up to temperatures between 450 °C and 650 °C; such high thermal stability is necessary for their application as gas sensors. Test measurements show a high sensitivity to methane gas in concentrations relevant for explosion prevention. The sensitivity is shown to be correlated not only with the surface-to-volume ratio, but also with the nanoscopic structural properties of the materials.@eng bibo_authorlist: - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Thomas foaf_name: Waitz, Thomas foaf_surname: Waitz - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Thorsten foaf_name: Wagner, Thorsten foaf_surname: Wagner - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Tilman foaf_name: Sauerwald, Tilman foaf_surname: Sauerwald - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Claus-Dieter foaf_name: Kohl, Claus-Dieter foaf_surname: Kohl - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Michael foaf_name: Tiemann, Michael foaf_surname: Tiemann foaf_workInfoHomepage: http://www.librecat.org/personId=23547 orcid: 0000-0003-1711-2722 bibo_doi: 10.1002/adfm.200801458 dct_date: 2009^xs_gYear dct_isPartOf: - http://id.crossref.org/issn/1616-301X - http://id.crossref.org/issn/1616-3028 dct_language: eng dct_title: 'Ordered Mesoporous In2O3: Synthesis by Structure Replication and Application as a Methane Gas Sensor@' ...
