Ammonia sensors are widely used across applications in food monitoring, environmental surveillance, and medical research, where high safety standards are essential. Cellulose-based materials are particularly well-suited to meet these stringent requirements, with significant potential for innovation due to their biodegradability and biocompatibility. Of the various cellulose-based ammonia sensors available, self-powered sensors, especially those based on triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), stand out for their unique advantages, including the absence of an external power supply, environmental sustainability, and ease of integration. This review offers a detailed overview of the integration of cellulose-based materials with ammonia-sensitive components, highlighting their ease of processing and modification. It further classifies and compares cellulose-based ammonia sensors based on their sensing mechanisms, emphasizing TENG-based sensors specifically. The review concludes with a summary of current applications and explores optimization strategies. Finally, it discusses future opportunities and challenges for cellulose-based self-powered ammonia sensors and provides valuable insights into ongoing innovation and potential.

Humidity-Activated Ammonia Sensor Based on Carboxylic Functionalized Cross-Linked Hydrogel.

Sensors (Basel)

December 2024

State Key Laboratory of Integrated Optoelectronics, College of Electronic Science and Engineering, Jilin University, Changchun 130012, China.

Owing to its extensive use and intrinsic toxicity, NH detection is very crucial. Moisture can cause significant interference in the performance of sensors, and detecting NH in high humidity is still a challenge. In this work, a humidity-activated NH sensor was prepared by urocanic acid (URA) modifying poly (ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) via a thiol-ene click cross-linking reaction.

Distributed feedback lasers, which feature rapid wavelength tunability, are not presently available in the yellow and orange spectral regions, impeding spectroscopic studies of short-lived species that absorb light in this range. To meet this need, a rapidly tunable laser system was constructed, characterized, and demonstrated for measurements of the NH radical at 597.4 nm.

This work presents a simple process for the development of flexible acetone gas sensors based on zinc oxide/graphene/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate). The gas sensors were prepared by inkjet printing, which was followed by a metal sparking process involving different sparking times. The successful decoration of ZnO nanoparticles (average size ~19.
