The physical property relation of resistance (R) vs temperature (T) corresponds to R = 7.0544e-0.0218T. The prepared samples are very sensitive to temperature response and can be used as temperature sensor application. A self constructed temperature reading system interfacing with a computer and a prepared sample temperature sensor can measure temperature ranging from 26 oC to 100 oC. %K NTC thermistor %K MnO+0.4CuO %K temperature sensor %U http://www.sjst.psu.ac.th/journal/25_1_pdf/12thong_ter.pdf
