The long-term stability and the extension of the use time of gas sensors are one of the current concerns. Lowering the working temperature is one of the most effective methods to delay aging. In this paper, pure MoS 2 and ZnO-MoS 2 nanocomposites were successfully prepared by the hydrothermal method, and the morphological characteristics were featured by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Pure MoS 2 and ZnO-MoS 2 nanocomposites, as a comparison, were used to study the aging characteristic. The sensing properties of the fabricated gas sensors with an optimal molar ratio ZnO-MoS 2 (Zn:Mo = 1:2) were recorded, and the results exhibit a high gas-sensing response and good repeatability to the acetylene detection. The working temperature was significantly lower than for pure MoS 2 . After aging for 40 days, all the gas-sensing response was relatively attenuated, and pure MoS 2 exhibits a faster decay rate and lower gas-sensing response than nanocomposites. The better gas-sensing characteristic of nanocomposites after aging was possibly attributed to the active interaction between ZnO and MoS 2 .
