Nanofiber-based chemical sensor materials

TABLE 8.2 Examples of nanofiber-based chemical sensor materials recently reported in the literature... 

Polyaniline nanofibers are synthesized through a simple, non-templated method, based on a modification of the classic chemical oxidative polymerization of aniline that makes nanofibers of uniform diameters. These materials respond significantly better than conventional films. To make the polyaniline even better for sensor materials, the nanofibers are dispensed into water and are combined with metals salts into a composite material. These...
