AB  - Wormhole-like mesoporous tin oxide was synthesized via a facile 
      evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA) method, and the gas-sensing properties 
      were evaluated for different target gases. The effect of calcination temperature 
      on gas-sensing properties of mesoporous tin oxide was investigated. The results 
      demonstrate that the mesoporous tin oxide sensor calcined at 400  degrees C exhibits 
      remarkable selectivity to ethanol vapors comparison with other target gases and 
      has a good performance in the operating temperature and response/recovery time. 
      This might be attributed to their high specific surface area and porous 
      structure, which can provide more active sites and generate more chemisorbed 
      oxygen spices to promote the diffusion and adsorption of gas molecules on the 
      surface of the gas-sensing material. A possible formation mechanism of the 
      mesoporous tin oxide and the enhanced gas-sensing mechanism are proposed. The 
      mesoporous tin oxide shows prospective detecting application in the gas sensor 
      fields.
