Mesoporous CoxWO4-sensing platform toward ethanol detection
Journal of Alloys and Compounds(2024)
摘要
We report for the first time using pure cobaltous tungstate (CoWO4) as an efficient ethanol sensor by controlling the Co3+-Co2+ redox couple in CoWO4. The prepared CoxWO4 has a flower-like structure self-assembled by a mesoporous microbelt. Moreover, the CoxWO4 sensor with a Co3+/Co2+ ratio of 38.9% exhibits a high response (42.9–100 ppm ethanol), fast response/recovery time (11/13 s), low detection limit (0.42 ppm), as well as remarkable short-term and long-term repeatability. Notably, the CoxWO4 sample maintains a constant response value over a wide range of humidity (30–90 RH%), manifesting its good anti-humidity properties. The outstanding sensing performance is owing to the Co3+-Co2+ redox couple, high surface area and moderate porosity of the obtained samples. The self-transforming of the Co3+-Co2+ redox couple contributes to the formation of absorbed oxygen (O2-), oxygen vacancies and the reduction of the band gap, which is a crucial factor in improving the sensing properties of CoxWO4.
