Hydrogel-Based Gas Sensors for NO 2 and NH 3
Abstract
In this study, an innovative gas sensing mechanism, self-responsive sensing mechanism, has been detected in the supramolecular hydrogel-based sensors. The self-responsive ability of as-fabricated hydrogel-based sensors to the target gas (e.g., NO 2, NH 3, etc.) is determined by three synergetic supramolecular interactions, namely, hydrogen bonding, molecule crystallization, and electrostatic interactions existing in hydroxyls, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) crystallization, and poly(ionic liquids) of the intrinsic hydrogel networks, respectively. On account of unique synergetic supramolecular interactions, the sensors not only exhibit a rapid, reversible, and reproducible response but also show good tensile and compressive properties and excellent recovery property. The results demonstrate the potential of the self-responsive sensing mechanism as a pathway to realize a new generation of highly responsive hydrogel-based gas sensors.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
