Hierarchical 0D/1D/2D Au/PANI/WS2 ternary nanocomposite NH3 sensor with high performance and fast response/recovery for food spoilage detection
Ammonia (NH 3 ) gas is regarded as a biomarker for clinical diagnosis of various diseases and a potential indicator for the spoilage of protein-rich foods. The acuate detection of the ammonia gas concentration depend on reliable gas sensor. In this paper, flexible room temperature ammonia gas sensor based on hierarchical Au/PANI/WS 2 ternary composite was successfully prepared by in-situ polymerization, reduction and drop-coating process. The Au/PANI/WS 2 -based ammonia sensor was tested for its room temperature sensing property including response value, response/recovery time, selectivity, and long-term stability. The effects of flexible state, humidity and operating temperature on the sensor response were also investigated. The 0D/1D/2D Au/PANI/WS 2 -based sensor showed significantly enhanced ammonia sensing property both in response and response/recovery time as compared to that of pristine WS 2 . Gas sensing mechanism of the prepared sensor was investigated by complex impedance spectroscopy and in-situ fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis. Besides, the sensor was proved for its practical usability in seafood spoilage detection and warning. The construction of multidimensional materials into hierarchical structure may provide an instructive way for the sensibilization of layered two-dimensional nanomaterial of WS 2.
