Molecularly imprinted polyvinyl acetate doped with boric acid for sensitivity and selectivity of ammonia sensing by QCM
Summary
An ammonia sensor made by coating a QCM with molecularly imprinted polyvinyl acetate doped with boric acid. Imprinting tripled the sensitivity to 0.243 Hz per ppm compared with the non-imprinted film, and the coating stayed selective for ammonia against amines such as trimethylamine and methylamine, with stable behaviour over a month of tests.
