Receptor‐Free Identification of Toxic Gases Enabled by Hygroscopic Aqueous Salt Films
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Water as a gas sensor coating sounds impossible—until it stops evaporating. Here, hygroscopic salt solutions (LiCl, LiBr, H3PO4) form non‐drying aqueous films on CNT chemiresistors under ambient air. Gases partition into these liquid layers, sometimes transforming into water, and generate salt‐specific resistance fingerprints across a four‐channel ...
