Hybrid layer-by-layer (LbL) films of polyaniline, graphene oxide and zinc oxide to detect ammonia

Abstract: Reliable gas sensors operating at room temperature are in demand for monitoring the environment for hazardous pollutants, such as ammonia (NH 3) gas that may become toxic to humans and animals above a threshold concentration. In this paper we report on the combination of three materials, namely polyaniline (PANI), graphene oxide (GO) and zinc oxide (ZnO), to produce hybrid layer-by-layer (LbL) films used for sensing NH 3 with impedance spectroscopy measurements. The deposition of tetralayered PANI/GO/PANI/ZnO … Show more

“…The advent of nanotechnology has promoted a new frontier in materials science research with huge possibilities of technological applications owing to the control of molecular chemistry and materials at nanoscale. For instance, graphene oxide (GO) and their nanocomposites are remarkable nanomaterials with appealing mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties, allowing them to be applied in optical and electronic devices and sensors . Considering the use of graphene‐based nanocomposites in biological applications, especially for cellular uptake and artificial organs, the understanding of their interaction with living systems, with possible implications in toxicity and tissue engineering studies, becomes relevant.…”

“…Owing to their high specific surface area and excellent electrocatalytic properties, nanomaterials such as graphene or metallic nanoparticles have been widely used to improve the performance of biosensors dedicated to the detection of phenols [6][7][8][9][10]. Other electrocatalysts, such as conducting polymers [11,12], porphyrins [13,14] or phthalocyanines [15][16][17], have also been successfully incorporated into LbL films as electrocatalytic materials in electrochemical biosensors. On the other hand, LbL films are ideal structures to incorporate linkers able to capture the enzymatic probes.…”

“…The incorporation of AuNPs in LbL structures composed by emeraldine salt polyaniline (PANi-ES) and sodium montmorillonite clay mineral (Na + MMT) enhanced the electrocatalytic response of the sensors to heavy metal ions, achieving a lower detection limit (from mgL −1 to μgL −1 ). Also in 2017 Andre et al tested hybrid LbL films as gas sensor to detect ammonia (NH 3 ) in hazardous pollutant monitoring [10]. LbL films composed by polyaniline (PANi), graphene oxide (GO), and zinc oxide (ZnO) were combined in a tetralayered structure (PANi/GO/PANi/ZnO) onto gold interdigitated electrodes (IDEs).…”
