Abstract

H₂ energy has gained massive attraction as a promising candidate for future energy sources. However, the explosive properties of H₂ arouse significant safety concerns, emphasizing the need for the development of real-time H₂ detection systems. This study presents the fabrication of an ultrasensitive and selective H₂ gas sensor using Pd/SnO₂ nanoparticles (NPs) synthesized through the utilization of Pluronic F-127. Pluronic F-127 improves the dispersion and regulates the particle size of Pd NPs. Pd/SnO₂ NPs, which are comprised of numerous nanojunctions, exhibit H₂ response of 27,190 and a response time of 3 s when exposed to 50 ppm of H₂ at 100 °C. The practical applicability of Pd/SnO₂ NPs was demonstrated by detecting H₂ generated from water-splitting cells, exhibiting promising features for H₂ energy industries. Overall, the synthetic method of this study proposes advanced strategies for development of sensing materials with maximized gas sensing performance.
