Chemical sensors for hostille environments : proceedings of the Chemical Sensors for Hostile Environments Symposium, held at the 103rd annual meeting of the American Ceramic Society, April 22-25, 2001, in Indianapolis, Indiana

This volume presents information on the unique topic of chemical sensors. It focuses on the materials, manufacturing, theory and application of sensors. It is a resource that researchers, students, and those involved in the the design and manufacturing of ceramics will find of critical importance.Content: Chapter 1 Solid?State Electrochemical Sensors for Automotive Applications (pages 1–10): R.
