Abstract:

In order to prepare the substrate material of ammonia sensor with both mechanical and electrical properties, nanofiber coated yarns (NCY) with polyester industrial yarn as core and polyamide 6 nanofiber as skin was continuously prepared by a water bath electrostatic spinning method, and conductive treatment was carried out by in-situ polymerization to prepare conductive nanofiber coated yarns (NCY/PPy) with polypyrrole on the surface. The surface morphology and chemical structure of NCY and NCY/PPy were analyzed by means of scanning electron microscope and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. Meanwhile, the conductivity, mechanical properties and ammonia sensitivity of NCY/PPy were studied. The results show that NCY has an extremely high specific surface area. After conducting treatment, the loaded polypyrrole does not block the gap between the fibers, and the nanofiber coating still maintains the porous network structure, and when the polypyrrole is 0.07 mol/L, the conductivity of NCY/PPy is 7.19×10-2 S/cm. Nano-structured conductive layer with high specific surface area is beneficial to improve the sensitivity of gas sensor to ammonia.
