Popis: The technology we are developing consists of the use of coordination compounds with metals to carry out this detection of Acetic acid. This compound normally reacts with acetic acid changing its colour, making it a suitable compound for use as a detector. The proposed method allows detecting acetic acid in any medium, whether in solution, in the gas phase, in the solid phase, or in any combination of these. Upon contact with the acid, a colour change occurs that can be detected visually or through optical means. After its use, the active medium can be regenerated by a simple procedure and be available again for new use. This allows the creation of simple and intuitive detection devices, usable by non-experts and that can be regenerated and reused. The main advantage of this sensor is to allow the specific detection of acetic acid and quantification of its concentration, using coordination compounds with metals that are present in the yellow dye.
