CARBON NANOTUBE-CHITOSAN THIN FILM ON QCM (QUARTZ CRYSTAL MICROBALANCE) FOR DETECTION OF IPA (ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL)
Summary
A QCM coated with a crosslinked composite of carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes and chitosan detects isopropyl alcohol vapour. The composite responded faster and more stably than either material alone, with about 106 Hz of shift and a 40 s response, and a linear trend between 300 and 700 ppm.
Summary written by the openQCM team. The original abstract is on the publisher’s page.
