| abstract |
The present invention relates to a method of manufacture of an electric moisture-content sensor comprising a porous layer of alumuniumoxihydroxide, the so-called boehmite, obtained by hydration of an aluminium substrate in boiling redistilled water and subsequent passivating tempering. n This method, due to its simplicity, results in a larger yield in manufacture, reduced variations of parameters of individual sensors and a higher stability of their calibration curves. n Due to the extraordinary prolonged stability of sensors manufactured according to this method, they can be for example applied for measuring of the moisture content of stored goods, for air-conditioning systems, for drying plants, in meteorology and also for microelectronics and in medicine. |
