Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'This project aims at exploring novel materials and their composites for significantly enhancing the performance of dedicated gas sensors as well as separation barriers. The focus will be on two emerging materials, namely carbon nanotubes and room-temperature ionic liquids, as well as composites consisting of both, with the aim of creating highly versatile and flexible affinity interfaces that exhibit drastically improved physico-chemical properties compared to conventional materials. During this truly multidisciplinary project, these materials and their composites are to be explored on one hand in combination with advanced gas sensor systems, in order to determine both the potential, possible windows of operation as well as the respective limitations. On the other hand, it is deliberately envisaged to study these materials and the respective composites for application in an apparently diverse area, namely gas/vapour separation barriers. The underlying aim of this approach is that both successful gas sensing and gas/vapour separation require high selectivities to target solutes, and transport phenomena naturally occurring in the latter can be a limiting factor in the former, although often neglected. This project will therefore exploit the application of carbon nanotubes and room-temperature ionic liquids, as well as their composites, in a strongly transdisciplinary manner in order to foster knowledge transfer between two of the priority areas of the NMP-programme for the benefit of significant advances in both.'
