Three sensors were prepared with SnO2, carbon nanoparticles (CNPs), and cellulose acetate (CA) composites, and each sensor containing different amounts of SnO2 powder were prepared for the detection of n-dodecane, 2-hexanone, and 3-methylcyclopentanone vapor at room temperature. Sensors with a combination of CNP:CA, SnO2:CA, SnO2:CNPs, and SnO2 composites were used as control, and their performance was compared with that of the sensor based on SnO2:CNPs:CA toward a wide range of 2-hexanone and 3-methylcyclopentanone vapor concentrations. Sensors based on CNPs:CA and SnO2:CNPs:CA selectively responded very well to 3-methylcyclopentanone and 2-hexanone, respectively. The in situ FTIR study revealed that both sensors undergo a deep oxidation process during sensing and the sensitivity of the sensors directly relates to the IR intensity of the CO2 peak at 668 cm−1, and for highly sensitive sensors, the CO2 peak at 668 cm−1 is found to be very intense. The gradient area under the curve of the IR CO2 band at 668 cm−1 against time for more sensitive sensors toward the analyte is larger than that for less sensitive ones. The effect of the amount of SnO2 in the composites indicated that the sensors based on three sensing materials combined at a mass ratio of 1:1:3 were highly selective toward 3-methylcyclopentanone and less selective toward the other two analytes. Sensors based on the composition of SnO2:CNPs:CA at a mass ratio of 1.5:1:3 and those based on the composition of SnO2:CNPs:CA at a mass ratio of 2:1:3 were selective toward 2-hexanone and n-dodecane, respectively. All the fabricated sensors were found to have their sensing ability regenerated after the analytes were removed from the system without losing their sensing and recovery abilities. |
