Various aniline sensing materials have excellent properties based on quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) transducer, but their synthesis processes are complex. Herein, commercial calcium silicate hydrate nanosheets (CSH-S) was utilized for facile fabrication of aniline sensor based on QCM platform. This sensor was capable of detecting 0.1 ppm aniline, and the response time (14 s) and recovery time (16 s) were short. Besides, the devices could restore sensitivity after 30 days, demonstrating excellent stability. In addition, variable temperature experiment combined with simulation calculation methods were carried out to study the adsorption of aniline on CSH-S surfaces, then the sensing mechanism was revealed. This work opens up a rapid and convenient method for detecting gaseous aniline.
