Porous one-component derivative of this film has been obtained by removing of cetylamine. Both films have been investigated as sensing layers of the surface acoustic wave sensors for vapors of methanol and ethanol in air. These films react on the alcohol vapors. Time of the sensor reaction is less than 2 s and this reaction is reversible. The response parameters of the sensor depend on the kind of the alcohol and the structure of the layer. An explanation of the observed differences in the behavior of both layers in contact with vapors of the alcohols has been proposed.
