Designing Polymeric Sensing Materials for Analyte Detection and Related Mechanisms
(Wiley, 2016-02)A systematic approach is used to design and tailor sensing materials for targeted analytes and specific applications. An example is used to demonstrate how potential sensing materials can be designed based on the chemical ... -
Indium Oxide Doped Polyaniline for Detection of Formaldehyde
(Wiley, 2022-06-22)Polyaniline (PANI) and a polyaniline derivative (poly (2,5-dimethyl aniline)) were evaluated for their sensitivity towards formaldehyde. Among the two polymer backbones evaluated, polyaniline seemed more sensitive towards ... -
Polymeric Materials for Detection of Chemical Warfare Agents
(University of Waterloo, 2021-12-08)Chemical Warfare Agents (CWAs) are toxic synthetic chemicals that can have incapacitating or lethal effects. The 1997 Chemical Weapons Convention (1997 CWC) restricted production, stockpiling and use of CWAs, including ... -
Straightforward Synthesis and Evaluation of Polymeric Sensing Materials for Acetone Detection
(Wiley, 2020-04-02)Three polymeric materials (polyaniline, polypyrrole, and poly(methyl methacrylate)) have been selected, prepared and evaluated for potential use in acetone sensing (for possible diabetes-related applications). Of the ... -
A Study on Nano-Si/Polyaniline/Reduced Graphene Oxide Composite Anode for Lithium-Ion Batteries
(University of Waterloo, 2013-04-30)Because of its high theoretical specific capacity (4200mAh/g) and natural abundance (2nd most abundant element on earth), silicon is considered a promising anode candidate for high energy density lithium-ion batteries. ... -
Synthesis and Characterization of Polymeric Gas Sensing Materials for Detection of Agriculture Lagoon Off-Gas
(University of Waterloo, 2023-10-03)With increasing food demand, agriculture and farming industry have grown. This led to an increase in production of agricultural waste. The waste is converted into manure via anaerobic fermentation which continuously produces ...
