This technique was successfully used to hierarchically structure polycarbonate-multiwall carbon nanotubes (PC-CNT) solutions into a double percolated architecture as attested by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and optical microscopy (OM). PC-CNT vapour sensing behaviour was investigated as a function of CNT content, films thickness, vapour flow and vapours solubility parameter. The response ranking A(r)(toluene)&amp;gt;A(r)(methanol)&amp;gt;A(r)(water)of PC-CNT was found to be coherent with kappa(12) Flory-Huggins interaction parameters provided that signals are normalised by analyte molecules number. Signals shape was interpreted to the light of Langmuir-Henry-Clustering (LHC) model and found to be proportional to vapour content. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
