Quartz Crystal Microbalance Coated with Polyacrylonitrile/Nickel Nanofibers for High-Performance Methanol Gas Detection
Summary
Electrospun polyacrylonitrile nanofibres loaded with nickel nanoparticles make a QCM coating for methanol gas. The high surface area gives a sensitivity of about 390 Hz per SCCM with good selectivity and long-term stability; adsorption is explained by Lewis acid–base interactions with the polymer and hydrogen bonding with the nickel particles.
