ROOM-TEMPERATURE PPB-LEVEL ANILINE VAPOR SENSOR FUNCTIONALIZED WITH UIO-66-SO3H

Aniline vapor must be immediately detected at low concentrations since it is a hazardous gaseous chemical. Here, ppb level aniline vapor is detected using the metal-organic framework of UIO-66-SO3H. Utilizing a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensing platform, the aniline adsorption-induced mass change of UIO-66-SO3H is converted to a signal of frequency shift. The sensor can detect a concentration of 20 ppb of aniline vapor and has good sensitivity for this purpose. Additionally, the sensor’s repeatability and stability are satisfactory. Notably, the sensor’s selectivity is prominent. Its response to aniline is much higher than that of ten interfering gases and BTEX vapor. And even in conditions with varying levels of humidity, this sensor maintains response stability.
