The paper reports the first demonstration of a bismuth-based coordination polymer for chemiresistive sensing.
Caveat: Claim is authors' best-knowledge statement.

A single Bi(HHTP) conductive network differentiates VOCs by response direction: acetone/MeOH increase normalised conductance, EtOH/iPrOH decrease it.
Caveat: Concentration ranges differ among VOCs; slopes read from plotted figure axes.

Current sensing limitations include limited control over spatial orientation and film thickness on device surfaces.
Caveat: Forward-looking limitation from conclusions.
60315 · Conclusions
Bi(HHTP) has alpha and beta structures associated with dehydration/hydration of pores; water changes bismuth coordination and unit-cell parameters.
Caveat: Exact phase volume ratio varies with drying; beta prevalence inferred from elemental analysis.

EtOH exposure I-V curves remain Ohmic after saturation, arguing against Schottky barrier modulation for VOC sensing.
Caveat: Only explicitly demonstrated for EtOH exposure.

Opposite responses to NO and NH3 are consistent with p-type semiconducting behaviour.
Caveat: Chemiresistive response also includes host-guest and hydrogen-bonding contributions.
