Novel preparation of functional β-SiC fiber based In 2O 3 nanocomposite and controlling of influence factors for the chemical gas sensing. Sci Rep 2022; 12:7241. [PMID: 35508640 PMCID: PMC9068823 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-11000-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
The gas sensing ability of a pure β-SiC fiber is limited due to its low-sensitivity and selectivity with poor recovery time during a gas sensing test. The combination of functional β-SiC fibers with metal-oxide (MO) can lead to excellent electronic conductivity, boosted chemical activity, and high reaction activity with the target gas and β-SiC–In2O3 sensor material. Influence factors such as amounts of MO, current collectors, and gas species (CO2, O2 and without gas) for the gas sensing ability of β-SiC–In2O3 nanocomposite were determined at standard room temperature (25 °C) and high temperature (350 °C) conditions. The gas sensing ability of the functional β-SiC fiber was significantly enhanced by the loading of In2O3 metal-oxide. In addition, the MO junction on the β-SiC fiber was mainly subjected to the Si–C–O–In bond sensor layer with an effective electron-transfer ability. The gas sensing mechanism was based on the transfer of charges, in which the sensing material acted as an absorber or a donor of charges. The sensor material could use different current- collectors to support the electron transfer and gas sensing ability of the material. A 1:0.5M SiC–In2O3 coated Ni-foil current collector sensor showed better sensing ability for CO2 and O2 gases than other gas sensors at room temperature and high temperature conditions. The sensing result of the electrode was obtained with different current density values without or with gas purging conditions because CO2 and O2 gases had electron acceptor properties. During the gas sensing test, the sensor material donated electrons to target gases. The current value on the CV graph then significantly changed. Our obtained sample analysis data and the gas sensing test adequately demonstrated that MO junctions on functional β-SiC fibers could improve the sensitivity of a sensor material and particularly upgrade the sensor material for gas sensing.

Abstract
Metal oxides with the hollow microstructure by the facile synthetic strategy are hopeful in applications for photocatalysis, supercapacitor, and gas sensor owing to their large surface areas, porosity ratio and rich active sites. In this work, indium oxide porous hollow rods (In2O3 PHRs) are successfully prepared using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as the template. The morphology of In2O3 PHRs is hexagonal hollow micro-rods with a porous structure. The investigation on the gas-sensing performance reveals that the In2O3 PHRs sensor displays outstanding sensitivity and selectivity toward 10 ppm chlorine gas (Cl2) at low operational temperature (160 °C). Furthermore, the In2O3 PHRs sensor displays a low detection limit (3.2 ppb) and short response and recovery time (38/13 s). The unique morphology and abundant oxygen vacancies are conduced to the excellent gas-sensing activities, which is benefited from the utilization and decomposition of In-MOFs precursor. In addition, the gas sensing mechanism of reducing gases and oxidizing gases is deduced in detail for the In2O3 PHRs sensor.

Abstract
Low concentration gas detection, rapid response time and low working temperature are anticipated for a varied range of toxic gas detection applications. Conversely, the existing gas sensors suffer mostly from a high working temperature along with a slow response at low concentrations of analytes. Here, we report an ultrasensitive flexible nanostructured Zn(x)Fe(1−x)2O4 (x = 0.1, 0.5 and 0.9) based chemiresistive sensor for nitrogen dioxide (NO2) detection. We evince that the prepared flexible sensor Zn(0.5)Fe(0.5)2O4 has detection potential as low as 5 ppm at a working temperature of 90 °C in a short phase. Further, the Zn(0.5)Fe(0.5)2O4 sensor exhibits excellent selectivity, stability and repeatability. The optimized sensor sensing characteristics can be helpful in tremendous development of foldable mobile devices for environmental monitoring, protection and control. Low concentration gas detection, rapid response time and low working temperature are anticipated for a varied range of toxic gas detection applications.![]()
