Preparation of Polyaniline/Cu-BTC Composite and its Sensing Application for Ammonia

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, a newly materials based on copper–benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate/polyaniline (PANI/Cu-BTC) composite was investigated for NH3 sensing. Cu-BTC was grown on the PANI a hydrothermal process. The sensing performance of as-grown product was studied for different concentrations of NH3 at room temperature. The results reveal that Cu-BTC/PANI composite exhibit high sensitivity toward NH3. The good sensing performance of the composite was attributed to high surface area and good affinity of Cu-BTC for NH3, which can act like preconcentrator for the NH3 gas sensing.
