Abstract: α-Fe2O3 hollow microspheres were successfully prepared by a hydrothermal approach using sucrose as morphology controlled agent, urea as precipitant and followed by calcination at 500°C for 4 h. The structure of α-Fe2O3 hollow microspheres was studied by XRD, SEM. The results show that the products were pure α-Fe2O3 with a hexagonal structure. And the microspheres with a diameter of 1-3μm were assembled by α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles (40-100nm), the surface of α-Fe2O3 hollow microspheres densified with the increasing of sucrose concentration. Above all, the gas sensing properties of the sensors based on the α-Fe2O3 hollow microspheres were investigated.
