Shrnutí:In this study, a novel ternary PANI@SnO2-Co3O4 nanocomposite was developed, that synergistically combines the functional advantages of its individual components, to achieve markedly enhanced NH3 sensing performance. At room temperature, the sensor exhibits a high response of 26.02–10 ppm NH3, with an ultralow theoretical detection limit of 0.122 ppm. It also shows excellent stability, with only a 1.2 % decrease in response peak over 25 days, making it a promising candidate for practical applications. Furthermore, the sensor demonstrates outstanding environmental adaptability, achieving higher response values and significantly faster response and recovery times under ultraviolet irradiation and moderate humidity (50 % RH). To enable real-time analysis, a Random Forest-based algorithm was implemented to accurately predict NH3 concentrations within the first 30 s of exposure. Overall, this work presents notable progress in NH3 sensing technology through innovative material design, environmental performance optimization, and intelligent prediction capabilities.
