Optical Sensor for Real-Time Detection of Trichlorofluoromethane
2019
Trichlorofluoromethane was once a promising and versatile applicable chlorofluorocarbon. Unaware of its ozone-depleting character, for a long time it was globally applied as propellant and refrigerant and thus led to significant thinning of the ozone layer and contributed to the formation of the so-called ozone hole. Although production and application of this substance were gradually reduced at an early stage, we still face the consequences of its former careless use. Today, trichlorofluoromethane is released during recycling processes of waste cooling devices, traded on the black market, and according to recent findings still illegally manufactured. Here, we present an optical sensor devi…
Pollutant Adsorbtion and Detection: Methyl-Substituted α-Cyclodextrin as Affinity Material for Storage, Separation, and Detection of Trichlorofluorom…
2018
The cover image depicts the hazard caused by chlorofluorocarbons such as CFC‐11, which are used, for example, as blowing agents for polyurethane foams, and the protective effect of the oligosaccharide, hexakis‐(2,3,6‐tri‐O‐methyl)‐α‐cyclodextrin, which is capable of binding CFC‐11 by supramolecular complexation and thus protecting the stratospheric ozone layer from the harmful trichlorofluoromethane. Further details can be found in article number 1800057 by Ralf Hellmann, Siegfried R. Waldvogel, and co‐workers.
Methyl-Substituted α-Cyclodextrin as Affinity Material for Storage, Separation, and Detection of Trichlorofluoromethane
2018
Abstract The severely ozone‐depleting trichlorofluoromethane is still appearing in several recycling processes or industrial applications. A simple and selective supramolecular complex formation of per‐methylated α‐cyclodextrin (1) with the highly volatile trichlorofluoromethane (2) is reported. This interaction moreover leads to thermally stable crystals. Per‐methylated α‐cyclodextrin is successfully exploited as a reversible and selective adsorption material for liquid and airborne trichlorofluoromethane as well as an affinity material for the chemical sensing and detection of this particular volatile organic component.
Planar Bragg Grating Sensor for the Detection of CFC-11
2018
We demonstrate the fabrication of a highly sensitive opto-chemical sensor system based on cyclodextrin derivative functionalized planar Bragg gratings for an online in-situ detection and measurement of the environmentally harmful propellant trichlorofluoromethane in real-time.
