Synthesis and Characterization of Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube/Chitosan (Mwcnt/Cs) Composite as a Sensing Layer on Quartz Crystal Microbalance (Qcm) for Detection of Volatile Organic Compounds (Vocs)
Summary
A composite of multi-walled carbon nanotubes and chitosan, cross-linked with glutaraldehyde, is tested as a QCM sensing layer for volatile organic compounds, combining the large surface of the nanotubes with the affinity of chitosan. After Raman, FTIR and SEM characterisation, the drop-cast sensor gave a 95.2 Hz shift to isopropyl alcohol with a 42 s response time.
