Quartz Crystal Microbalance Coated with Sol-gel-derived Thin Films as Gas Sensor for NO Detection
This paper presents the possibilities and properties of Indium tin oxide (ITO)covered quartz crystal as a NOx toxic gas-sensor. The starting sol-gel solution was prepared by mixing indium chloride dissolved in acetylacetone and tin chloride dissolved in ethanol (0-20% by weight). The ITO thin films were deposited on the gold electrodes of quartz crystal by spin-coating technique and subsequentl...
متن کاملA Dibutyl Phthalate Sensor Based on a Nanofiber Polyaniline Coated Quartz Crystal Monitor
Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is a commonly used plasticizer and additive to adhesives, printing inks and nail polishes. Because it has been found to be a powerful reproductive and developmental toxicant, a sensor to monitor DBP in some working spaces and the environment is required. In this work polyaniline nanofibers were deposited on the electrode of a quartz crystal oscillator to form a Quartz Cr...
متن کاملDetermination of linear short chain aliphatic aldehyde and ketone vapors in air using a polystyrene-coated quartz crystal nanobalance sensor.
A polystyrene coated quartz crystal nanobalance (QCN) sensor was developed for use in the determination of a number of linear short-chain aliphatic aldehyde and ketone vapors contained in air. The quartz crystal was modified by a thin-layer coating of a commercial grade general purpose polystyrene (GPPS) from Tabriz petrochemical company using a solution casting method. Determination was based ...
متن کاملDetection of folate binding protein with enhanced sensitivity using a functionalized quartz crystal microbalance sensor.
In this report, we describe the development of a quartz crystal microbalance biosensor for detection of folate binding protein (FBP). Using a simple folate-BSA conjugate adsorbed onto a Au-coated quartz sensor, a detection limit of 30 nM was achieved. Binding of FBP to the sensor surface could be blocked at concentrations as high as 1 microM with a 100-fold excess of folic acid, indicating the ...
متن کاملDew Point Calibration System Using a Quartz Crystal Sensor with a Differential Frequency Method
In this paper, the influence of temperature on quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensor response during dew point calibration is investigated. The aim is to present a compensation method to eliminate temperature impact on frequency acquisition. A new sensitive structure is proposed with double QCMs. One is kept in contact with the environment, whereas the other is not exposed to the atmosphere....
