Abstract :
The performance of a four -component IDC sensor array to four analytes of varying polarity and varying chemical affinity to the sensing polymer layers has been studied and discussed in relation to (i) the pure analyte vapor concentration, (ii) exposure to binary analyte mixtures and (iii) PCA analysis of the results.
