Abstract

Carbon dioxide is one of the typical gases of a lithium battery thermal runaway. In this paper, lanthanum cobaltate (LaCoO 3 ) nanospheres were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis route, sheet structure MXene nanomaterials were prepared by lithium fluoride (LiF) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) etching aluminum titanium-carbide (Ti 3 AlC 2 ), and a CO 2 sensor assembled by a LaCoO 3 /MXene nanocomposite was successfully constructed. The nanocomposite was observed and characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD, and XPS, and the gas sensitivity of the composite sensitive material and the single sensitive material to CO 2 was systematically compared. The results show that the response of a LaCoO 3 /MXene nanocomposite sensor to 800 ppm of CO 2 reaches 50.47% at the optimum operating temperature of 60 °C, which is 2.94 times higher than that of a pristine LaCoO 3 sensor (17.16%). In addition, the LaCoO 3 /MXene sensors demonstrate low detection limits (50 ppm), short response/recovery times (14/32 s@ 800 ppm), and good long-term stability. The gas sensing properties of the composite may be due to the Schottky heterojunction formed between the LaCoO 3 nanospheres and MXene. The results indicate that LaCoO 3 /MXene nanocomposites are potential CO 2 sensing materials at low operating temperatures.
