In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy study of formaldehyde adsorption and reactions on nano gamma-Fe2O3 films
The nano gamma-Fe2O3 films gas sensor was fabricated by the screen printing technology. The phase structures and morphologies of nano gamma-Fe2O3 films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), respectively. The gas sensitivity of the films to 100 ppm formaldehyde was investigated. The surface adsorption and reaction process between nano gamma-Fe2O3 films and formaldehyde was studied by in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) method at different temperatures. DRIFTS results showed that dioxymethylene, formate ions, polyoxymethylene and molecularly formaldehyde surface species were detected when the nano gamma-Fe2O3 films exposed to 100 ppm formaldehyde at different temperatures. A possible mechanism of the reaction process was discussed. (c) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
