Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of gas sensor, more particularly, to a core-shell structure TiO2 / In2O3 coaxial nanofiber material and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The rapid development of national industry has brought great changes to people's life, but at the same time, environmental problems have become increasingly serious, and automobile exhaust, industrial waste gas and the like have brought great hidden dangers to people's health. Triethylamine is a volatile organic compound with strong ammonia smell. When the human body is exposed to triethylamine atmosphere for a long time, it will have a serious impact on health, such as skin allergy, respiratory system damage and eye irritation. In addition, triethylamine is also considered to be a carcinogen, which may promote the growth and spread of cancer cells. Due to the strong volatility of triethylamine and the low concentration in the air, etc., it leads to the increase of detection difficulty, and special attention should be paid to sampling methods and analysis techniques and the like. Therefore, it is of great importance to quickly, accurately and real-time monitor triethylamine for human health and environmental safety.

[0003] Metal oxide semiconductors (MOSs) have broad application prospects in triethylamine detection due to their excellent physical and chemical properties. So far, various MOSs, such as In2O3, TiO2, WO3, NiO, have been used to prepare triethylamine gas sensors. Among them, In2O3 and TiO2 are widely concerned due to their advantages of small toxicity, high electron mobility and morphological diversity. However, the gas sensors prepared by single In2O3 or TiO2 have the disadvantages of poor selectivity, low sensitivity, long response / recovery time, etc., which limit their wide application.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a gas sensitive material with improved sensitive effect for triethylamine, so as to overcome the problems of poor selectivity, low sensitivity, poor stability, slow response, etc. in the detection of triethylamine by existing gas sensors. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application aims to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the prior art, and provides a core-shell structure TiO2 / In2O3 coaxial nanofiber material and a preparation method and application thereof, which provides a feasible method for detecting the concentration of triethylamine gas in the environment.

[0006] In order to improve the above-mentioned defects, the applicant finds that the strategies of constructing heterojunction, regulating morphology, loading noble metal, etc. can be expected to improve the gas sensing performance. Among them, the heterojunction is an interface region produced by the contact of materials with different Fermi levels. Due to the difference of the energy band structure of the sensing material, when the Fermi level reaches equilibrium, the energy band bending produces an electron depletion layer or a hole accumulation layer, which controls the band gap of the metal oxide. More specifically, the construction of the heterojunction can provide more active sites for the target gas, showing higher catalytic activity than single metal oxide. Therefore, the construction of the heterojunction has great significance for improving the gas sensing performance of the metal oxide. In addition, the applicant finds that the core-shell structure can provide a special electron transfer path. When a material with a small work function is selected as the core, electrons will transfer from the core to the shell, and the accumulation of electrons in the shell is conducive to the formation of a space charge layer, thereby improving the sensing performance.

[0007] Therefore, the present application adopts the coaxial electrospinning method to prepare the core-shell structure TiO2 / In2O3 coaxial nanofiber material, constructs the n-n heterojunction, and improves the triethylamine sensing performance of TiO2 and In2O3. On the one hand, the core-shell structure provides a special electron transport channel, which is conducive to accelerating the gas adsorption-desorption process; on the other hand, the formation of the n-n heterojunction improves the synergistic effect between the two materials, so that they integrate the advantages of each other and improve the gas sensing performance of the material. The sensor prepared by the present application is effective and has practical significance for dynamic monitoring of triethylamine.
