Nanoporous materials, including metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and inorganic zeolites, are gaining attention as gas sensor materials due to their chemical selectivity and robustness. To advance industrial viability of these materials as sensors, long-term, variable environment testing is needed to evaluate their stability and continued chemical exposure response. Nanoporous materials-based direct electrical readout sensors were evaluated for 3 months under dry or humid conditions at 74 °C. The sensors were comprised of either Ni-MOF-74, Mg-MOF-74, or Ni-SSZ-13 zeolite. Additionally, we describe the development of multichambered sensor testing platforms that allows uninterrupted direct impedance monitoring of each sensor over long test periods. Results indicate relative stability in dry conditions for the sensors over time. In contrast, degradation of the active sensing material is evident in the humid environment. Collectively, these results demonstrate need for long-term testing of emerging nanoporous sensor materials under specific environmental conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
