Özet
This study presents the sensing studies of QCM sensors which coated with calix[4]arene derivatives bearing different functional groups towards some selected Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). Initial experiments revealed that QCM sensor coated with calix-3 bearing bromopropyl functionalities was relatively more effective sensor for methylene chloride (MC) emissions than the other calix[4]arene coated QCM sensors, in aqueous media. In further experiments, this effective calix-3 coated QCM sensor were used in detailed sensing studies of selected VOCs. However, the results demonstrated that calix-3 coated QCM sensor was most useful sensor for toluene (TOL) emissions among all. Moreover, the sensing of TOLs with calix-3 coated QCM sensor was also evaluated in terms of sorption phenomena. Consequently, calix-3 coated QCM sensor was good sensor for TOL emissions, and thus it demonstrated that the coating of QCM sensor surface with calixarenes was good approach for sensing of the VOCs.
