Chemiresistive gas sensors composed of a thermoplastic polymer matrix and conductive fillers offer various advantages for detecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including low power consumption due to near-room-temperature operation, high sensitivity, ...
The authors report the fabrication and characterization of chemiresistive sensors, composed of a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), styrene‐ethylene‐ran‐butylene‐styrene, and a high‐structure carbon black (CB) targeted for detecting hydrocarbons at or near roo ...
