Title: | Detection of triacetone triperoxide using temperature cycled metal-oxide semiconductor gas sensors | Authors: | Warmer, Johannes WAGNER, Patrick Schoening, Michael J. Kaul, Peter |
Issue Date: | 2015 | Publisher: | WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH | Source: | PHYSICA STATUS SOLIDI A-APPLICATIONS AND MATERIALS SCIENCE, 212 (6), p. 1289-1298 | Abstract: | The temperature-dependent sensing properties of metal-oxide semiconductor gas sensors (MOX), based on SnO2 and WO3, to measure triacetone triperoxide (TATP), diacetone diperoxid (DADP), and di-tert-butyl-peroxide (DTBP) and acetone are described. Conductivity measurements in the range from 100 to 400 degrees C operating temperature show two different reaction pathways on the surface for WO3 sensors. At temperatures below 150 degrees C organic peroxides react as an oxidizer which leads to an increase in the sensor resistance. Above 200 degrees C they react as a reducing agent that leads to a decrease of the sensor resistance. This effect is caused by two different, peroxide dependent reaction paths. The unique behavior of WO3-based sensors can be used for selectivity enhancements in temperature cycle operation mode. With this method gas concentrations down to a few ppb are detectable. Scheme of TATP reacting on tungsten oxide semiconductor gas sensor. TATP decomposes and this leads to an increase of the sensor resistance at low temperatures and a decrease of resistance at high temperatures. | Notes: | [Warmer, Johannes; Kaul, Peter] Bonn Rhein Sieg Univ Appl Sci, D-53359 Rheinbach, Germany.
