  Abstract

This study focuses on the modification and application of metal–organic framework-5 (MOF-5) material, aiming to combine it optimally with polypropylene (PP) to create a fluorescence detection sensor. This sensor is designed to be highly efficient and sensitive to sulfur dioxide. The process begins with using polypropylene yarn as the base. Under alkaline conditions, dopamine (DA) undergoes oxidative polymerization, introducing an active DA thin layer on the PP yarn surface. This modification facilitates secondary functionalization and provides additional attachment sites, paving the way for the integration of MOF-5-NH2. Subsequently, the amino group-treated MOF-5 is loaded onto the modified DA/PP yarn. The fluorescence induction of the resulting MOF-5-NH2/DA/PP composite yarn to sulfite is then systematically studied. The final MOF-5-NH2/DA/PP composite yarn exhibits satisfactory tensile performance, with a maximum tensile strength of 134.94 Mpa. Notably, the prepared fluorescence detection sensor demonstrates specificity, exhibiting a fluorescence opening effect only in the presence of sulfite, while other gases and ions do not trigger this effect. This research thus presents a novel strategy for the preparation of highly sensitive sulfite sensors.
