الملخص | Gas sensing properties at room temperature and energy harvesting performances are realized for the polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanocomposites containing titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes grown in the presence of carbon nanotubes (CNT). While hydrothermal reaction is practiced for the development of TiO2/CNT hybrid nanotubes, spin coating is done for the nanocomposite films to be deposited on sensing electrodes. Influence of various filler concentrations and the synergistic combination of fillers on the sensing characteristics are studied by recording the response times and the stability of the results. Upon exposure to liquefied petroleum gas, the PVDF/TiO2-CNT (2.5 wt.%) gas sensor shows a sensing response of 0.45 s (400 ppm LPG), approximately nine times higher than the composite containing 2.5 wt.% of TiO2 or 2.5 wt.% CNT. The piezoelectric response of the samples is also recorded and correlated with the synergistic influence of the filler materials. The current study can stimulate a good trend in fabricating self-powered gas sensors from PVDF nanocomposites. |
