Abstract

We report here a development of a novel gas-sensing based on a nanostructured electrode of multi-walled carbon nanotubes/manganese dioxide nano-flowers-like/polyaniline nanowires (PANi NWs/MWCNTs/MnO2) nanocomposite. The polyaniline composite samples were tested by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Ultraviolet–visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy for identification of the composition of modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes and manganese dioxide (MWCNTs/MnO2) available on surface of polyaniline composites. The obtained results demonstrate the applicability of the PANi NWs/MWCNTs/MnO2 composites to improve the sensitivity, response time, and recovery time of NH3 gas sensors.
