Zinc ferrite (ZnFe2O4) sensitive coatings have been deposited by suspension plasma spraying. The phase constitution of the coatings was characterized by x-ray diffraction while the top surface and cross-sectional morphology of the coatings were inspected by scanning electron microscopy. The response to acetone was tested with the concentration in the range of 25-500 ppm at the working temperature from 175 to 275 A degrees C. The sensors that were deposited at an arc current of 400 A showed better performance than those at 600 A owing to small grain size and high porosity. The sensor response increased with acetone concentration. The optimized sensors showed excellent response/recovery time and selectivity to acetone at 200 A degrees C.
