Conductometric sensor for ammonia and ethanol using gold nanoparticle-doped mesoporous TiO2

Abstract: We describe uniform and high-temperature-stable mesoporous TiO 2 beads functionalized with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs-TiO 2 ) for use in conductometric sensing of gases and organic vapors. The size of the interconnected main mesopores of the TiO 2 beads ranges from 8 to 15 nm, and the AuNPs have diameters between 8 and 10 nm. The mesoporous TiO 2 beads are formed during calcination while the structure-directing template agent is removed. Monodispersed AuNPs are formed by reduction in-situ and are placed inside … Show more

“…In this case, for ethanol sensing, CH 10 operating at 100°C was good and CH 7.5 operating at 100°C is suitable for ammonia sensing. The interaction of alcohol and reducing gases with sensing film were entirely different and thus led to such results 14 . The flow of ethanol and ammonia vapors on the sensor film and its simultaneous reaction 15 with the polymerized CH by the adsorption and interaction processes gave rise to variation in the senor response.…”

“…They are classified based on their working principles into electrochemical, [5] optical, [6] mass (acoustic), electrical, and other types. Mass sensors can be divided into quartz crystal microbalances (QCM) [7] and surface acoustic waves (SAW), [8] and electrical sensors can be classified into metal oxide semiconductors (MOS), [9] capacitors, [10] and resistors. [11] Nowadays scientists are eager to explore small amounts of chemical compounds in reactions.…”

“…The SnO 2 -reduced graphene oxide based porous film has been reported to be an effective gas sensor material with tunable sensitivity through UV irradiation 18 . Various methods used for ammonia sensing include colorimetric sensing 19 , conductometric sensing 20 , electrochemical sensing 21 , direct detection of ammonium ion by means of oxygen electrocatalysis 22 , resistance based sensing 2325 , impedance analysis 26 and Keithley electrometer sensing 27 . The gas sensing by impedance analysis is simple and compact experimental set-up compared with other methods.…”
