摘要
The microstructure and humidity-sensitive characteristics of alpha-Fe2O3 porous ceramic were investigated. Microporous alpha-Fe2O3 powders were obtained by controlling the topotactic decomposition reaction of alpha-FeOOH. Water vapor adsorption thermogravimetrical experiments were carried out in the relative humidity (rh) range 0% to 95% on the alpha-Fe2O3 powder and the 900-degrees-C sintered compact. The microstructure was investigated by SEM, TEM, Hg intrusion, and N2 adsorption porosimetry techniques. The humidity sensitivity was investigated by the impedance measurements technique in 0% to 95% rh on the compacts sintered at 50-degrees-C steps in the 850-degrees to 1100-degrees-C range. Humidity response was found to be affected by the microstructure, i.e., the characteristics of the precursor powders and sintering temperatures.
