摘要
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) posed substantial safety risks in industrial settings due to its odorless and toxic nature and necessitated vigilant detection. With the burgeoning importance of H2S gas sensing applications, this study focused on the synthesis and utilization of a novel biomimetic material aimed at advancing gas sensing capabilities. Biomimetic polyaniline (Bio-PANI) with an artificial hierarchical surface structure was fabricated through the innovative nanocasting technique. This technique involved the replication of the surface pattern of a natural Xanthosoma sagittifolium leaf (XSL) onto a PANI coating, achieved using a negative template. In comparison to PANI, Bio-PANI showcased higher specific surface area (160 m2/g versus 41 m2/g of PANI) and exhibited significantly amplified reversible redox and doping-dedoping capacities. The application of Bio-PANI and PANI coatings on interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) allowed for gas-sensing assessments. These evaluations encompassed as-prepared IDE sensor's responsivity, selectivity, repeatability, and stability. Notably, the BioPANI-coated IDE sensor showed larger response (185% versus 27% of PANI toward a 10 ppm concentration of H2S), a consequence of their substantially larger specific surface area and greater electrochemical performances when contrasted with PANI-coated IDE sensor. In addition, Bio-PANI-coated IDE sensor exhibited better selectivity, repeatability, long-term stability, and moisture resistance.
