Purpose This paper aims to study the various developments taking place in the field of gas sensors made from polyaniline (PANI) nanocomposites, which leads to the development of high-performance electrical and gas sensing materials operating at room temperature. Design/methodology/approach PANI/ferrite nanocomposites exhibit good electrical properties with lower dielectric losses. There are numerous reports on PANI and ferrite nanomaterial-based gas sensors which have good sensing response, feasible to operate at room temperature, requires less power and cost-effective. Findings This paper provides an overview of electrical and gas sensing properties of PANI/ferrite nanocomposites having improved selectivity, long-term stability and other sensing performance of sensors at room temperature. Originality/value The main purpose of this review paper is to focus on PANI/ferrite nanocomposite-based gas sensors operating at room temperature.

In this study, a nanostructured zinc oxide/reduced graphene oxide (ZnO/rGO) composite was deposited on a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) as a toluene gas sensor at room temperature. A series of ZnO, rGO and ZnO/rGO sensing materials was fabricated and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and Raman spectroscopy. There was significant efficiency of the ZnO/rGO composite on the sensing performance for toluene. For specific gas fluxes, the nanostructured ZnO/rGO offered sufficient paths and region for vapor diffusion and adsorption. The sensing test results illustrated that the nanostructured ZnO/rGO composite showed significant enhancement in the frequency shifts (△f) for toluene comparing to pure ZnO and rGO. Also, the ZnO/rGO-coated QCM sensor displayed a fast response (both the response and recovery times < 30 s) and reproducibility for sensing toluene gas at room temperature. We believe that the novel insights on ambient temperature gas sensing on nanostructured ZnO/rGO composite could provide a new strategy for preparing a highly efficient sensing materials.

A sensor operating at room temperature has low power consumption and is beneficial for the detection of environmental pollutants such as ammonia and benzene vapor. In this study, polyaniline (PANI) is made from aniline under acidic conditions by chemical oxidative polymerization and doped with tin dioxide (SnO2) at a specific percentage. The PANI/SnO2 hybrid material obtained is then ground at room temperature. The results of scanning electron microscopy show that the prepared powder comprises nanoscale particles and has good dispersibility, which is conducive to gas adsorption. The thermal decomposition temperature of the powder and its stability are measured using a differential thermo gravimetric analyzer. At 20 °C, the ammonia gas and benzene vapor gas sensing of the PANI/SnO2 hybrid material was tested at concentrations of between 1 and 7 ppm of ammonia and between 0.4 and 90 ppm of benzene vapor. The tests show that the response sensitivities to ammonia and benzene vapor are essentially linear. The sensing mechanisms of the PANI/SnO2 hybrid material to ammonia and benzene vapors were analyzed. The results demonstrate that doped SnO2 significantly affects the sensitivity, response time, and recovery time of the PANI material.

Abstract Design and engineering of highly efficient emitting materials with assembly-induced luminescence, such as room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) and aggregation-induced emission (AIE), have stimulated extensive efforts. Here, we propose a new strategy to obtain size-controlled Eu3+-complex nanoparticles (Eu-NPs) with self-assembly induced luminescence (SAIL) characteristics without encapsulation or hybridization. Compared with previous RTP or AIE materials, the SAIL phenomena of increased luminescence intensity and lifetime in aqueous solution for the proposed Eu-NPs are due to the combined effect of self-assembly in confining the molecular motion and shielding the water quenching. As a proof of concept, we also show that this system can be further applied in bioimaging, temperature measurement and HClO sensing. The SAIL activity of the rare-earth (RE) system proposed here offers a further step forward on the roadmap for the development of RE light conversion systems and their integration in bioimaging and therapy applications.
