The techniques used to determine the adsorption of gas in the polymer were the electrochemical impedance, steps voltammetry and transmission electron microscopy. The objective of this work was to determine the ability of adsorption and desorption of PANI to be used as sensor in an open environment. Measurements were performed in a controlled atmosphere, temperature and flux. The gas was passed through a glass capsule in which an electrochemical cell was designed with copper electrodes and PANI as electrolyte. The change in electrical properties of the material is analyzed using a potentiostat/galvanostat in situ. Subsequently, the material was analyzed by TEM (Transmission Electron Microscopy) elemental analysis. The measurements were performed with difl^rent concentrations of N20 with a purity of 99%. As a result of measurements, it was found that the change in electrical resistance of PANI is caused by the physical interaction that occurs when in contact with NzO and even a change in the morphology of polymer, however, the binding is weak and sufficient to increase the temperature at which 25% PANI film regains its original properties.展开更多
