The invention relates to the use of at least one electrically-conductive or semi-conductive polymer as a sensitive material in a resistive or gravimetric sensor, for detecting one or several nitro compounds, selected from the group consisting of nitroaromatic compounds, nitramines, nitrosamines and nitric esters. Said invention finds application in bomb search, control and monitoring of air pollution and quality of more or less confined environments and monitoring of industrial sites which produce, store and/or handle nitro compounds. |
