[0010] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the drawings are simplified and do not correspond to actual dimensional proportions. Numerical ranges "A to B" represent A or more and B or less unless otherwise specified.
[0011] The main components of odors are broadly classified into nine components. If a sensitive membrane can detect a wide variety of odor components out of these nine, it is thought that an odor sensor that can be applied to a wider range of odors can be provided.
[0012] Furthermore, the sensitive film may adsorb moisture, gas components, etc. in the atmosphere, which may cause the detection sensitivity to decrease from the initial value. One method for preventing this decrease in detection sensitivity is to remove the components adsorbed on the sensitive film by heating. In this method for removing the components adsorbed on the sensitive film by heating, depending on the type of adsorbed component, it is necessary to heat the sensitive film at a high temperature. Therefore, there is a demand for improved heat resistance of the sensitive film.

[0055] [Example 3] 3-(bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-yl)-1,1,1-trifluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)propan-2-ol (HFANB, 54.8 g, 200 mmol), N-phenylmaleimide (PhMI, 62.6 g, 361 mmol), 2.1 g of dimethyl 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionate), and 117.4 g of MEK were weighed into a suitable reaction vessel and stirred to dissolve.

The weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of the polymer was 11,000. The resulting polymer was designated the cyclic olefin resin of Comparative Example 2.
[0058] [Measurement and evaluation] <Weight average molecular weight (Mw) of cyclic olefin resin> The weight average molecular weight (Mw) of the cyclic olefin resin is determined from a calibration curve of standard polystyrene (PS) obtained by GPC measurement, and a polystyrene-equivalent value is used. The measurement conditions are as follows. Measurement equipment: Tosoh gel permeation chromatography equipment HLC-8320GPC Column: Tosoh TSK-GEL Supermultipore HZ-M Detector: RI detector for liquid chromatography Measurement temperature: 40℃ Solvent: THF Sample concentration: 2.0 mg / ml
[0059] <5% mass loss temperature of cyclic olefin resin> The 5% mass loss temperature of the cyclic olefin resin was calculated by TG-DTA measurement. Specifically, the temperature at which the mass of the cyclic olefin resin decreased by 5% based on the mass at the start of thermogravimetry was defined as the 5% mass loss temperature of the cyclic olefin resin. The measurement conditions are as follows. Measurement equipment: NETZSCH STA 2500 Regulus high-sensitivity differential differential thermobalance Measurement atmosphere: Atmospheric Temperature range: 40℃~400℃ Heating rate: 5°C / min (40°C to 120°C temperature range), 10°C / min (120°C to 400°C temperature range)
[0060] <Odor detection evaluation> (Production of odor detection element) The cyclic olefin resin was dissolved in a solvent (acetone, tetrahydrofuran, and Novec7100 manufactured by 3M Co.) to prepare a resin solution, with the resin concentration in the resin solution being 0.5 to 1% by mass. A resin solution was applied to the gold electrode surface of a QCM (Quartz Crystal Microbalance) type odor detector by spray coating, and the solvent was removed by heating to obtain an odor detection element equipped with a resin film made of a cyclic olefin resin. At this time, the resin film was formed to a thickness of 500 to 1000 nm.
[0061] (Production of an odor detection device) An odor detection device was fabricated that included an odor detection element with a resin film, an oscillation circuit, and a detector. The odor detection element is electrically connected to the oscillation circuit. An oscillator circuit oscillates at an oscillation frequency related to the resonant frequency of the oscillator. The resonant frequency of an oscillator can be defined as either the resonant frequency (fr) at the oscillator's resonance point or the anti-resonant frequency (fa) at the anti-resonant point, or any frequency in between. It is thought that an oscillator circuit oscillates at a frequency near the resonant frequency. When a specific substance adheres to the sensitive film (resin film), the mass of the oscillator increases, causing the resonant frequency to decrease, and therefore the oscillation frequency to decrease. The detector detects the oscillation frequency as a detection value related to the resonant frequency of the vibrator.
[0062] (Gas detection test) Figure 2 is a diagram for explaining the gas detection test method in the examples. In Figure 2, "MFC" stands for "Mass Flow Controller." First, dry air was flowed into the odor detector from the gas generator at a constant flow rate for 30 seconds to stabilize the sensor operation, and then gas was flowed into the odor detector at the same flow rate as the dry air flow rate for 210 seconds. The change in frequency when the gas flow reached equilibrium or after a certain time had passed was taken as the gas sensitivity. The gas detection test was also conducted at room temperature (25°C).
[0063] Gas detection tests were conducted using the following nine gases, adjusting the gas concentrations. Gas types: ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, acetic acid, ethanol, toluene, acetone, 2,3-dimethylpentane (2,3-dmp), ethyl acetate, acetaldehyde
[0064] In the gas detection test, if a signal of 15 Hz or more was shown as a frequency change even when the gas concentration was 10 ppm or less, the gas was evaluated as having good detection sensitivity. Table 1 shows the number of gases out of nine that had good detection sensitivity.
[0065] The evaluation results of the detection sensitivity for each gas species are shown in Table 2. The evaluation criteria are as follows: AA: Even when the gas concentration was 5 ppm or less, a signal of 15 Hz or more was observed as a frequency shift. A: When the gas concentration was 5 ppm or less, no signal of 15 Hz or more was observed as a frequency change, and when the gas concentration was between 5 ppm and 10 ppm, a signal of 15 Hz or more was observed as a frequency change. B: When the gas concentration is 10 ppm or less, no signal of 15 Hz or more is shown as a frequency change.
[0066] The results of measurement and evaluation for each example and each comparative example are shown in Table 1 and Table 2. In Table 1, the abbreviations for the raw material monomers are as follows. NC: 5-norbornene-2-carboxylic acid HFANB: 3-(bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-yl)-1,1,1-trifluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)propan-2-ol C4F9NB: 5-nonafluorobutyl-2-norbornene PhMI: N-phenylmaleimide CyMI: N-cyclohexylmaleimide
[0067] [Table 1]
[0068] [Table 2]
[0069] The cyclic olefin resins of the examples had good detection sensitivity for 5 or more gas species. The 5% mass loss temperature of the cyclic olefin resins of the examples was higher than that of the cyclic olefin resins of the comparative examples. The cyclic olefin resin of Comparative Example 1 had good detection sensitivity for three gas species, which was fewer than that for the cyclic olefin resins of Examples 1 and 2. The cyclic olefin resin of Comparative Example 2 also had a lower 5% mass loss temperature than that for the cyclic olefin resins of Examples 1 and 2. That is, it can be understood that the composition for a sensitive film of this embodiment can provide a sensitive film that can detect a wide variety of odor components and has improved heat resistance.
