Precursor powders of nasicon solid electrolytes were synthesized by both the colloidal method (CM) and sol-gel method (SGM) and characterized. The phase evolution of the sensor materials and sintered microstructures was analyzed by X-ray diffraction technique (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Zirconia-free nasicon phase was formed at relatively low temperature from the sol-gel precursor powder. Sintered pellets produced from calcined sol-gel powder exhibited single-phase (homogenous) microstructure while a silica-rich glass phase was present at the grain boundaries in the pellets sintered from calcined colloidal powders. Disc-shaped sensor elements were fabricated via uniaxial pressing of the calcined powders and subsequently sintered at 1150 degrees C for the CM powders and 1200 degrees C for the SGM powders, respectively. Platinum electrode was applied to the sensor elements to produce potentiometric/electrochemical carbon dioxide gas sensors. The electrical response of the sensors to CO2 was investigated at various operating temperatures and CO2 concentrations. Sensors made from sol-gel derived materials displayed better sensing response to CO2 gas at higher testing temperature as compared to sensors made from the colloidal powders.
