Abstract
Hydrocarbon detectors having CNTs coated with an amphiphilic coating capable of sequestering an active molecule are provided. In one aspect, a hydrocarbon detection device is provided. The hydrocarbon detector device includes a plurality of CNTs dispersed in a polar solvent, wherein each of the CNTs is coated with an amphiphilic coating having molecules with a hydrophilic moiety and a hydrophobic moiety, and wherein the coating creates a hydrophobic environment proximal to a surface of each of the CNTs; and one or more hydrophobic active molecules sequestered in the hydrophobic environment proximal to the surface of each of the CNTs.
