Abstract
In this work, the synthesis of polyaniline nanocomposite based sensing materials using different processes and methods has been presented and discussed. The obtained materials were characterized by using advanced techniques like XRD and FT-IR. In order to check the sensing properties, the synthesized sensor was fabricated and was exposed to different concentrations of ammonia gas. The minimum concentration of ammonia gas at which the sensor responded was found 5 ppm.
