- nitroaromatic compounds such as nitrobenzene, dinitrobenzene (DNB), dinitrotoluene (DNT), 2, 4, 6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) and the like.
- Such sensors are useful for the detection of explosives, whether to ensure the security of public places such as airports, to control the legality of goods in circulation in a territory, to fight against terrorism, to carry out disarmament operations, locate anti-personnel mines or clean up industrial or military sites. They are also useful for protecting the environment, in particular for controlling and monitoring atmospheric pollution and the quality of more or less confined atmospheres, as well as for monitoring for security purposes, industrial
- the size of the devices they use, their energy consumption and their implementation costs preclude the development of easily transportable and autonomous detection systems and, therefore, suitable for use on any type of sites.
- the development of sensors capable of detecting species in real time gaseous chemicals is booming.
- the operation of these sensors is based on the use of a film of a sensitive material, that is to say of a material of which at least one physical property is modified in contact with the desired gas molecules, which has a system able to measure in real time any variation of this physical property and thus highlight the presence of the desired gas molecules.
- the subject of the invention is the use of at least one electrically conductive or semi-conductive polymer as a sensitive material in a resistive or gravimetric sensor intended to detect one or more nitro compounds chosen from the group consisting of nitroaromatic compounds, nitramines, nitrosamines and nitric esters.
- nitroaromatic compounds chosen from the group consisting of nitroaromatic compounds, nitramines, nitrosamines and nitric esters.

- polymer "semi -conductive "of electricity a polymer whose electrical conductivity is between about 10 " 10 and 10 2 siemens / cm at room temperature.
- the conductive or semiconductor polymer is preferably a conjugated polymer which is chosen from the polymers corresponding to formulas (I), (II), (III), (IV) and (V) below:
- n is an integer ranging from 5 to 100,000 while Ri, R 2 , R 3 and R 4 represent, independently of each other: a hydrogen or halogen atom, a methyl group, - a chain linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated, comprising from 2 to 100 carbon atoms and optionally one or more several heteroatoms and / or one or more chemical functions comprising at least one heteroatom, and / or one or more aromatic or heteroaromatic groups substituted or not, a chemical function comprising at least one heteroatom, or alternatively - an aromatic or heteroaromatic group substituted or not .
- R 1f R 2 , R 3 and / or R 4 represent a C 1 to C 10 hydrocarbon chain and this comprises one or more hetero atoms and / or one or more chemical functions and / or one or more aromatic or hetero-aromatic groups, then these atoms, these functions and these groups can as well form a bridge inside this chain as they can be carried laterally by it or even be located at its end.
- the heteroatom (s) may be any atom other than a carbon or hydrogen atom such as, for example, an oxygen, sulfur, nitrogen, fluorine, chlorine, phosphorus, boron atom or else of silicon.
- the chemical function (s) can in particular be chosen from the functions -COOH, -COOR 5 , -CHO, -CO -, - OH, -OR 5 , -SH, -SR 5 , -S0 2 R 5 , -NH 2 , -NHR 5 , -NR 5 R 6 , -C0NH 2 , -CONHR5, -C0NR 5 R 6 , -C (X) 3 , -OC (X) 3 , -COX, -CN, -C00CH0 and -C00C0R 5 in which: R 5 represents a hydrocarbon group, linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated, comprising 1 to 100 carbon atoms, or a covalent bond in the case where said chemical function or functions form a bridge in a C 2 to C 10 hydrocarbon chain .

- the aromatic group or groups may be any hydrocarbon group comprising one or more unsaturated C 3 to C 6 rings and comprising conjugated double bonds such as, for example, a cyclopentadienyl, phenyl, benzyl, biphenyl, phenylacetylenyl, pyrene or anthracene group, while that the heteroaromatic group or groups can be any aromatic group as just defined, but comprising, in at least one of the rings which constitute it, one or more heteroatoms such as, for example, a furanyl, pyrrolyl group , thiophenyl, oxazolyle, pyrazolyle, thiazolyle, imidazolyle, triazolyle, pyridinyle, pyranyl, quinolineyl, pyrazinyle or pyrimidinyle.
- poly (3 -alkylthiophenes) useful according to the invention include poly (3-butylthiophene), poly (3-hexylthiophene), poly (3-octylthiophene), poly (3-decylthiophene) or also poly (3-dodecylt iophene).
- These polymers can be obtained either from companies which market them - which is, for example, the case for a certain number of poly (3-alkylthiophenes) which are available from the company Sigma-Aldrich - or by oxidative polymerization, enzymatic, electrochemical or other, of the corresponding monomers.
- Polyanilines can also be obtained by protonation of emeraldine base, for example by means of an acid as widely described in the literature. Furthermore, whatever the intrinsic conductivity of these polymers, that is to say the conductivity which they exhibit outside of any particular treatment, it is possible to subject them to doping and / or dedoping reactions. so as to adjust this conductivity to a value predetermined according to the type of sensor in which they are intended to serve as sensitive material and nitro compounds to be detected.
- These doping reactions can be carried out using, for example, an acid such as hydrochloric acid, camphor sulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid or 3-nitrobenzenesulfonic acid; a salt such as iron chloride, nitrosyl trifluoroborate, the sodium salt of anthraquinone-2-sulfonic acid, the sodium salt of 4-octylbenzenesulfonic acid, lithium perchlorate or tetra perchlorate -n-butylammonium; a halogen such as iodine or bromine; an alkali metal such as sodium, potassium or rubidium; and, more generally, by means of any acid or oxidizing agent.
- an acid such as hydrochloric acid, camphor sulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid or 3-nitrobenzenesulfonic acid
- a salt such as iron chloride, nitrosyl trifluoroborate,
- dedoping reactions can be carried out using any base or reducing agent such as ammonia or phenylhydrazine.
- the conductivity of a weakly conductive polymer can also be adjusted by adding a polymer with higher conductivity.
- the conductive or semi-conductive polymer can also be a polymer which is synthesized in a doped form, that is to say which is obtained by polymerization of monomers previously bonded chemically to a doping agent such as, for example.
- aniline monomers each coupled to a sulfonic camphor acid molecule or thiophene monomers each coupled to a molecule of a polysulfonate of the polystyrene sulfonate or polyacrylate sulfonate type.
- the conductive or semiconductor polymer is advantageously in the form of a thin film which covers one or both sides of a substrate suitably chosen according to the physical property of the sensitive material whose variations are intended to be measured by this sensor.
- the conductive or semi-conductive polymer can also be in a massive form such as, for example, a cylinder having a certain porosity so as to make all the molecules of the polymer accessible to the nitrated compounds.
- a thin film When it is in the form of a thin film, the latter preferably has a thickness of 10 angstroms to 100 microns.
- Such a film can be obtained by any of the techniques proposed to date for producing a thin film on the surface of a substrate, for example: by spraying, by spin coating ("spin coating" in English).
- thin films of poly (3-alkylthiophenes) produced by spinning deposition have been found to have an electrical conductivity very much higher than that of films of similar thickness but obtained by spraying. We therefore favor a deposition technique rather than another depending on the level of conductivity that we want to give the thin film.
- the substrate and the sensor measurement system are chosen according to the physical property of the sensitive material, the variations induced by the presence of nitro compounds are intended to be measured by the sensor. In the present case, the variations of two physical properties have proved to be particularly interesting to measure. These are, on the one hand, variations in electrical conductivity, and, on the other hand, variations in mass.
- the sensor is a resistive sensor or a gravimetric sensor.
- quartz microbalance sensors By way of examples of gravimetric sensors, mention may be made of quartz microbalance sensors, surface wave sensors, better known under the English terminology “SA” for "Surface Acoustic Wave”, such as wave sensors. from Love and the Lamb wave sensors, as well as the microlevers.
- quartz microbalance sensors are more particularly preferred.
- This type of sensor schematically comprises a piezoelectric substrate (or resonator), generally a quartz crystal covered on its two faces with a metallic layer, for example d gold or platinum, and which is connected to two electrodes. Since the sensitive material covers one or both sides of the substrate, any variation in mass of this material results in a variation in the vibration frequency of the substrate.
- the invention it is possible to combine, within the same device or "multisensor", several resistive and / or gravimetric sensors comprising sensitive materials different from each other, or provided with substrates and measurement systems different from each other, the main thing being that at least one of these sensors comprises a conductive or semiconductor polymer. It is also possible to integrate one or more sensors into such a multisensor additional comprising a conductive or semiconductor or semiconductor polymer as defined above as a sensitive material, but designed to measure variations of a physical property other than electrical conductivity and mass such as, for example, variations of an optical property , especially fluorescence.
- nitro compound or compounds intended to be detected by the sensor are chosen from nitroaromatic compounds, nitramines, nitrosamines and nitric esters, these compounds being able to be present in solid, liquid or gaseous form (vapors) .
- nitroaromatic compounds include nitrobenzene, dinitrobenzene, trinitrobenzene, nitrotoluene, dinitrotoluene, trinitrotoluene, benzene dinitrofluoro- the dinitrotrifluorométhoxybenzène, the amino dinitrotoluene, dinitrotrifluoromethylbenzene the chlorodinitrotrifluorométhylbenzène, 1 hexanitrostilbene, trinitrophenylmethylnitramine (or tetryl) or trinitrophenol (or picric acid).
- nitramines are, for example, cyclotetramethylenetetranitramine (or octogen), cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (or hexogen) and tetryl, while the nitrosamines are, for example, nitrosodimethylamine.
- nitric esters these are, for example, pentrite, ethylene glycol dinitrate, diethylene glycol dinitrate, nitroglycerin or nitroguanidine.
- Resistive and gravimetric sensors comprising a conductive or semiconductor polymer as sensitive material, in accordance with the invention have been found to have many advantages, in particular: - an ability to detect nitro compounds with very high sensitivity since they are capable to detect their presence at concentrations of the order of ppm, or even lower, - an ability to selectively detect nitro compounds compared to other organic compounds, and in particular to other aromatic compounds such as toluene, - rapidity response and reproducibility of this response, - an ability to operate continuously, - a very satisfactory lifetime, the conductive and semiconductor polymers showing good resistance to aging, - a manufacturing cost compatible with a production of sensors in series, a very small amount of polymer (i.e.
