Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="toc"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <graphic position="anchor" id="ga" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh3xs5j9cs" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" />Coral-like porous SnO₂ was synthesized by a simple hydrothermal treatment. 1.5% CeO₂-doped SnO₂ shows high response and selectivity to toluene, as the Ce-dopant can enhance its sensitivity. This good performance may contribute to the catalytic oxidation effect of CeO₂.</p> </abstract>
