CA 2416084

An odour sensor utilises an amine or an aldehyde dispersed in a polymer film to detect a vapour phase aldehyde or amine respectively. The amine and aldehyde react to form fluorescent reaction product which is detected by measuring the fluorescence emitted after irradiating the sensor element with UV light. The sensor contains a camera and a programmed cpu to analyse the fluorescence to determine the identity of the vapour phase molecule and its concentration.

L'invention concerne un capteur d'odeurs utilisant une amine ou un aldéhyde en dispersion dans un film polymère pour déceler respectivement l'amine ou l'aldéhyde en phase vapeur. L'amine et l'aldéhyde réagissent pour former un produit de réaction fluorescent décelé par une mesure de la fluorescence émise après exposition de l'élément capteur aux rayonnements ultraviolets. Le capteur comporte un appareil de prise de vues et une unité centrale programmée pour analyser la fluorescence, ce qui permet de déterminer l'identité de la molécule en phase vapeur et sa concentration.
