abstract = {Quartz crystal microbalances (QCMs) coated by polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) nanofibers with controlled morphology have been made for ethanol vapor detection. We used electrospinning to deposit PVP nanofibers of different morphologies (spherical-beaded, spindle-beaded, and pure nanofiber) on a QCM surface to study the effect on sensor performance. BET characterization revealed that the spherical-beaded nanofiber had the highest BET-specific surface area than the other morphologies, which improves the QCM sensor sensitivity, limit of quantification (LOQ), limit of detection (LOD), and sensor response. QCM coated with spherical-beaded nanofiber showed improved sensitivity of 2.632 Hz/ppm, lower LOD and LOQ of 0.018 ppm and 0.061 ppm, and better response compared to those coated with spindle-beaded and pure nanofiber. Based on adsorption isotherm models, Freundlich adsorption isotherm was found to be the most suitable for describing ethanol vapor adsorption on the sensor. The high sensitivity of the sensor to ethanol vapor was attributed to hydrogen bonding interactions between the sensor and the ethanol molecules. This study shows that the QCM-based sensor performance can be improved by modifying the morphology of nanofibrous coating layer.},

abstract = {This study describes a sensor based on quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) coated by polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers containing nickel nanoparticles for methanol gas detection. The PAN/nickel nanofibers composites were made via electrospinning and electrospray methods. The QCM sensors coated with the PAN/nickel nanofiber composite were evaluated for their sensitivities, selectivities, and stabilities. The morphologies and elemental compositions of the sensors were examined using a scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive X-ray. A Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometer was used to investigate the elemental bonds within the nanofiber composites. The QCM sensors coated with PAN/nickel nanofibers offered a high specific surface area to enhance the QCM sensing performance. They exhibited excellent sensing characteristics, including a high sensitivity of 389.8 ± 3.8 Hz/SCCM, response and recovery times of 288 and 251 s, respectively, high selectivity for methanol compared to other gases, a limit of detection (LOD) of about 1.347 SCCM, and good long-term stability. The mechanism of methanol gas adsorption by the PAN/nickel nanofibers can be attributed to intermolecular interactions, such as the Lewis acid–base reaction by PAN nanofibers and hydrogen bonding by nickel nanoparticles. The results suggest that QCM-coated PAN/nickel nanofiber composites show great potential for the design of highly sensitive and selective methanol gas sensors.},
