Flexible Impedimetric Electronic Nose for High-Accurate Determination of Individual Volatile Organic Compounds by Tuning the Graphene Sensitive Properties
2021
Overview
We investigated functionalized graphene materials to create highly sensitive sensors for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as formaldehyde, methanol, ethanol, acetone, and isopropanol. First, we prepared VOC-sensitive films consisting of mechanically exfoliated graphene (eG) and chemical graphene oxide (GO), which have different concentrations of structural defects. We deposited the films on silver interdigitated electrodes on Kapton substrate and submitted them to thermal treatment. Next, we measured the sensitive properties of the resulting sensors towards specific VOCs by impedance spectroscopy. We obtained the eG- and GO-based electronic nose composed of two eG films- and four GO film-based sensors with variable sensitivity to individual VOCs. The smallest relative change in impedance was 5% for the sensor based on eG film annealed at 180 °C toward 10 ppm formaldehyde, whereas the highest relative change was 257% for the sensor based on two-layers deposited GO film annealed at 200 °C toward 80 ppm ethanol. At 10 ppm VOC, the GO film-based sensors were sensitive enough to distinguish between individual VOCs, which implied excellent selectivity, as confirmed by Principle Component Analysis (PCA). According to a PCA-Support Vector Machine-based signal processing method, the electronic nose provided identification accuracy of 100% for individual VOCs. The proposed electronic nose can be used to detect multiple VOCs selectively because each sensor is sensitive to VOCs and has significant cross-selectivity to others.
