Roll-to-roll manufacturing of flexible acetone sensors.

ABSTRACT: A fully roll-to-roll (R2R) manufactured conductometric sensor has been developed for acetone detection. It features flexible, screen-printed silver electrodes modified with a MoS2 and single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) nanocomposite. The electro-spraying process allowed for the simultaneous fabrication of over 100 electrodes. The optimized electro-sprayed electrodes showed a consistent average resistance of 99.63 Ω (SD = 8.10), ensuring uniform and reliable sensor performance for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) detection. SEM and TEM analyses revealed that the porous 3D MoS2-SWCNT network enhances gas adsorption and sensor performance. To improve acetone selectivity, electrodes were functionalized with tetrafluorohydroquinone (TFQ), which binds with acetone and facilitates charge tran
