In this paper, we report two HBA polymers for detection Received in revised form of styrene vapors based on 434-MHz surface acoustic wave (SAW) chemical sensors. These polymers, 17 September 2014 dubbed PLF and LSFA, are pendent hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP)-group modified polysiloxanes, which Accepted 18 September 2014 were synthesized by one-step hydrosilylation reaction.
