Short Communication Reflectance-based detection of oxidizers in ambient air

Abstract

This study used two types of paper supported materials with a prototype, reflectance-based detector for indication of hydrogen peroxide vapor under ambient laboratory conditions. Titanyl based indicators provide detection through reaction of the indicator resulting in a dosimeter type sensor, while porphyrin based indicators provide a reversible interaction more suitable to continuous monitoring applications. These indicators provide the basis for discussion of characteristics important to design of a sensor system including the application environment and duration, desired reporting frequency, and target specificity
