Room temperature sensing of primary alcohols via polyaniline/zirconium disulphide

This study made a room-temperature gas sensor from polyaniline and exfoliated zirconium disulphide and tested it on methanol, ethanol and isopropanol vapors. It is a materials and sensor paper with no zirconium exposure data.

Key numbers

  • This paper reports no numerical findings relevant to zirconium exposure.

Methods (brief)

Liquid exfoliation of zirconium disulphide, chemical polymerization of polyaniline, composite preparation by sonication, and vapor response testing.

Evidence fitness

Off-topic for dietary exposure. The paper uses zirconium disulphide in a gas sensor; it does not support dietary exposure or toxicity claims for zirconium.

Limitations

No zirconium was measured in food, water, soil or human samples, so nothing in the paper describes exposure.
