Short Review on the Conducting Polymer based Nanocomposites for Gas Sensing Applications

In the rapidly developing world a great concern regarding the protection and wellbeing of living beings and environment has led to the necessity for development of accurate monitoring processes through accurate and sensitive sensors. For these sensor applications conducting polymers nanocomposites have been widely used. In this article we will discuss about the conducting polymers, their mechanism of conduction, the sensing mechanism and different types of conducting polymers-based gas sensors. The prospects of conducting polymers-based gas sensor nanocomposites are also discussed in this article.
