Ultrasensitive room temperature NH3 sensor based on a graphene-polyaniline hybrid loaded on PET thin film.

ABSTRACT

This research was motivated by the need to develop a smart ammonia (NH3) sensor based on a flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) thin film loaded with a reduced graphene oxide-polyaniline (rGO-PANI hybrid) using in situ chemical oxidative polymerization. The sensor not only exhibited high sensitivity, good selectivity and a fast response at room temperature but was also flexible, cheap and had wearable characteristics.
