Abstract:
This paper presents the development and application of attapulgite/polyimide nanofiber composite aerogels (ATP/PI NFAs) integrated with a range of acid-base indicators, fabricated using electrospinning and freeze-drying technologies. A detailed characterization of the ATP/PI NFAs revealed a 3D multi-level pore structure that enhanced the mass transfer of target gas molecules and their interaction with probe molecules. Utilizing machine learning approaches, we designed an ATP/PI NFAs-based colorimetric sensor array capable of real-time evaluation of balsa fish freshness. Color features sensitive to changes in freshness were selected using principal component analysis and random forest. Partial least squares regression and random forest regression models were established, achieving the prediction of total volatile basic nitrogen content in balsa fish. The system was validated using a national standard method to demonstrate its accuracy and practicality. The combination of advanced ATP/PI NFAs-based colorimetric sensor array with robust machine learning models paves the way for food safety monitoring.
