Investigation on the Printed CNT-Film-Based Electrochemical Sensor for Detection of Liquid Chemicals

We studied electrochemical sensors using printed carbon nanotubes (CNT) film on a polyethylene telephtalate (PET) substrate. The mechanical stability of the printed CNT film (PCF) was confirmed by using bending and Scotch tape tests. In order to determine the optimum sensor structure, a resistance-t...

Sumario:We studied electrochemical sensors using printed carbon nanotubes (CNT) film on a polyethylene telephtalate (PET) substrate. The mechanical stability of the printed CNT film (PCF) was confirmed by using bending and Scotch tape tests. In order to determine the optimum sensor structure, a resistance-type PCF sensor (R-type PCF sensor) and a comb-type PCF sensor (C-type PCF sensor) were fabricated and compared using a diluted NH(3) droplet with various concentrations. The magnitude of response, response time, sensitivity, linearity, and limit of detection (LOD) were compared, and it was concluded that C-type PCF sensor has superior performance. In addition, the feasibility of PCF electrochemical sensor was investigated using 12 kinds of hazardous and noxious substances (HNS). The detection mechanism and selectivity of the PCF sensor are discussed.
