  • Descrição: Metal-oxide doped conductive polymers have been investigated as sensors in the field of gas-sensing. Recent developments have highlighted the role of intrinsically conductive polymers, that have reportedly offered high surface response towards the detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). In this work, we optimize the development of gas-sensors made of Polyaniline/Zinc oxide (PANI/ZnO) composite, capable of detecting a varied class of VOCs such as, ammonia, acetone, formaldehyde, methanol, and ethanol. The conductivity of these sensors is evaluated at room temperature and are investigated until saturation. In addition to the final application, this work also focusses on the synthesis strategies to achieve an ‘optimal’ matrix-to-additive ratio, such that superior chemical response is paralleled with mechanical robustness for PANI based sensors. The PANI/ZnO composites are casted into sensors bearing different additive ratios, via a drop-casting method and the same is evaluated for its formability and mechanical behavior. Physio-chemical characterization was performed using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis (EDX) and we report on an exceptional selectivity for ammonia with an average sensor response of 3496.67 mV by all the sensors, when fabricated using different matrix-additive ratios. This result is superior to what is observed for Pure- PANI sensors that were selective only to methanol and ethanol. The addition of ZnO in the smallest fraction, already offers a broader range of selectivity, e.g., PANI/ZnO 90:10 sensor was selective to formaldehyde as assessed using pattern recognition.
