The special alpha-MoO3 arrays constructed from nanoplates were synthesized using a simple solid-state chemical reaction. The obtained products were characterized by x-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis. Gas-sensing characteristics of the products toward noxious gases were investigated. The alpha-MoO3 arrays with high consistency were self-assembled in-situ by two-dimensional nanoplates due to the crystal face preferred orientation and the appropriate protection for specific crystal surface. The arrays exhibited good response to xylene in a wide range of concentrations, and the response value to 100 ppm xylene reached 19.2 at the optimum operation temperature of 370 degrees C, which is three times higher than that of unassembled alpha-MoO3 nanoplates. The good xylene response was attributed to the preferential exposure of the active crystal faces with high reactivity and the relatively large specific surface area of arrays, which provided more active sites and adsorbed more oxygen molecules for reaction with xylene molecules. The excellent response properties of the alpha-MoO3 nanoplates arrays make it a good candidate as a gas-sensing material for xylene detection. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
