Review—Conducting Polymers as Chemiresistive Gas Sensing Materials: A Review
Open accessAbstract
Detection of harmful gases is important to ensure human and environmental health. Industrial waste gases such as CO, NO 2 , H 2 S, and NH 3 are of typical focus among researchers over the years. Chemiresistive sensors are suitable for detecting these harmful gases. One suitable candidate material for this sensor is the conducting polymer, which offers the advantage of room-temperature operation. This review focuses on the overall development of conducting polymer as chemiresistive sensing materials. Effects of different parameters influencing sensor performance such as response, gas concentration, response time, and recovery time of conducting polymers are explored. Different conducting polymers are compared and their affinities to specific gases are determined. An understanding of pure conducting polymers assists further exploration of these polymers in composite form. A comprehensive understanding based on an overview of literature will facilitate researchers in selecting appropriate conducting polymers for different gas sensing applications and is expected to encourage further progress in this area.

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.
