Sulfur hexafluoride (SF) is crucial in electrical equipment for its insulating properties, and detecting its decomposition products can help identify faults in power systems.
The study introduces a new sensing material made from CoO-modified NiSnO nanofibers, which was created using a two-step process involving electrospinning and hydrothermal methods, showing promising results for detecting SF decomposition gases.
The CoO@NiSnO composite exhibits high sensitivity and selectivity for SOF gas at low temperatures and demonstrates improved sensing capabilities due to its unique microstructure, which enhances charge transfer and diffusion rates.
