The composition is in the form of a filament and includes: a) a metal and/or ceramic powder: b) an organic binding phase including two parts: b1) at least one thermoplastic compound selected from thermoplastic polymers and waxes; and b2) at least one volatile organic compound which has a vapor pressure at 50° C., ranging from more than 0 bar to 0.05 bar, wherein the amount of the at least one volatile organic compound ranges from more than 0.5% to 40% (v/v) by volume relative to the total volume of the composition.

Disclosed is a gas sensing material for methylbenzene detection. Specifically, the gas sensing material includes a nanocomposite of Cr.sub.2O.sub.3 and ZnCr.sub.2O.sub.4. The content of Cr in the nanocomposite is from 67.0 at. % to 90.0 at. %, based on the sum of the contents of Cr and Zn atoms. The gas sensing material is highly selective to methylbenzenes over other gases and is highly sensitive to methylbenzenes. Also disclosed are methods for preparing the gas sensing material. The methods facilitate control over the composition of the gas sensing material and enable rapid synthesis of the gas sensing material at low temperature. Also disclosed is a gas sensor including the gas sensing material.
