| Description | Journal: Iop Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering IDE using elastomer functionalized MWNT nanocomposites was fabricated and applied for the oil sensor. Two types of nanocomposites (i.e., MWNT-grafting-polyisoprene and Si-MWNT/natural rubber) having elastomer content of ~70 wt% were used as a sensing material of oil sensor and the relative electrical resistance response of the sensor to three different kinds of oils (i.e., gasoline, engine oil and pump oil) was investigated. Among three kinds of oils, the response of MWNT-grafting-polyisoprene nanocomposites IDE sensor to gasoline was the most significant. It showed the maximum relative electrical resistance of 18 within 20 min of dropping of 200 μL gasoline at room temperature for the MWNT-grafting-polyisoprene nanocomposites, which is far superior in sensitivity to the experimental results reported by Ponnamma et al in 2016 [1]. On the other hand, the response of Si-MWNT/natural rubber nanocomposites IDE sensor to gasoline was not appreciable. The elastomer functionalized MWNT nanocomposites prepared by "grafting-from" method, which is MWNT-grafting-polyisoprene in this study, is an excellent candidate material for the detection of oil spills. |
