Nanostructured Materials for the Detection of CBRN

Abstract

The present review briefly reflects tin dioxide applications for safety devices for the last 2 years as convenient, cheap, widespread material with suitable physical and chemical properties. The usage of nanoscale SnO2 forms are considered for several types of devices such as: gas sensors of conductometric type, electrochemical sensors, sensors on the SPR effect, material for electrodes of lithium-ion batteries and solar cells, together with catalytic applications for decomposition of pollutants.
