2 1. Preparation of the nanomaterials Functionalized silica nanoparticles About 13 ml of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) were mixed with 425 ml of ethanol under magnetic stirring for 30 min. Afterward, 17 ml of NH 4OH were added and left under stirring overnight at room temperature. The formed nanoparticles were chemically modified with different molar ratios of TEOS to 1-[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]urea (TMSPU), namely, 1.0:0.5, 1.0:1.0, 1.0:1.5, and 1.0:2.0. For this purpose, the silica nanoparticles (SiO 2NPs) were successively stirred overnight, centrifuged at rpm for 10 min, washed three times with both ethanol and deionized water, lyophilized at room temperature, and dispersed in water using ultrasound bath for 30 min. The bare SiO 2NPs were synthesized following the routine described above in the absence of TMSPU. Oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes First, the multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were dispersed in HNO mmol L 1 at 5:1 ratio (mg of MWCNT to ml of HNO 3) using ultrasound bath during 5 min. Following, the dispersion was magnetically stirred at 150 C in a conventional reflux system for MWCNT oxidation. Distinct samples were produced changing the oxidation time as 6, 12, 24, and 48 h. Next, the nanotubes were washed with deionized water until ph 6 using Millipore filtration and polytetrafluoroethylene membrane (0.2 µm). Finally, the CNTs were lyophilized, dispersed in water ultrasound bath for 1 h, and stored at room temperature. 2. Circuit diagram of the electrodes Figure S1. Association of capacitors in the e-tongue. Circuit diagram (A) and stereoscopy image (the same presented in Figure 1 of main text) of the lateral view of the sample channel with the cross section of the two channels (both filled with red dye) where electrodes are inserted above (E A) and below (E B) the sample, forming the capacitor (B). The dielectrics consisted of the sample fluid and dielectric film on the electrodes. I n and C n mean current and capacitance, respectively. 3. Number of sensing units There is no a definite rule for the number of sensing units since it is tightly tied to the electrodes material and similarity between the samples. Anyway, the e-tongue performance is generally improved with the number of sensing units as a function of the increase in the volume information to be correlated in the multivariate statistical analyses. According to Suslick, 1 an optimal e-tongue should contain as much chemical diversity as possible. For instance, we previously showed that an e-tongue with distinct film-based resistors ensures classifications stronger than a microchip with only one type of film thin-based resistor. 2 Herein, the use of four sensing units allowed us for reaching strong classifications.

Images and size distributions by FE-SEM (A) and 3D surface topographies recorded by AFM of the oxide-coated microwires (B). In (A), all the scale bars represent 200 nm. The oxide thin films associated with each data are identified above the results (SiO 2, NiO 2, Al 2O 3, and Fe 2O 3 films). Figure S3. FE-SEM image (A) and AFM data (B) of the bare microwire.

Classification of the bare and functionalized SiO 2NPs using association of oxide-coated resistors. The classification of the clusters was very poor, with S of 0.05 only. The lack of reproducibility for the water-related clusters is not associated with the passivation of the microwires, but to the high similarity between the spectra of the distinct samples that indicates the poor sensitivity of this e-tongue. Such unsatisfactory sensitivity damages the classification for analyses made in different moments. S5

While W;W means the pumping of only water in the two devices, the other sample sets are identified in accordance with the pumping of 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 (represent TEOS:TMSPU molar ratios of 1.0:0.5, 1.0:1.0, and 1.0:1.5, respectively) in C 1 and C 2 (see main text), respectively. The pairs of clusters with the same samples but pumped in the channels in an inverted order are highlighted by asterisks.

No sedimentation was observed in (A), all of the negative potentials were higher than 30 mv in (B), and the absorbance values presented very low deviations after 120 min in (C).

Classification of the MWCNTs using the capacitors of different metals insulated by SiO 2. The distinction of the clusters was satisfactory, with S of Aqueous solution of ppm NaCl was used as control sample, indicating the absence of electrode contamination as well. S7
8 7. Effects of the sample concentration and dielectric thickness We assessed the effects of the sample concentration and dielectric film thickness on the e-tongue performance using the capacitors with stainless steel microwires insulated by the different dielectric films as described in the main text. First, experiments for MWCNTs at 10.0 ppm revealed a decrease in capacitances and classification ability (0.67 S) as shown in Figure S12 (A,B), where the capacitance spectra and IDMAP plot are illustrated. Conversely, the data for ppm MWCNTs with 400 nm dielectric films led to a raise in the capacitance values and enhanced sensitivity between the samples oxidized during 6 and 24 h. For instance, the maximum capacitances (at 1 Hz) recorded with 800 and 400 nm films for the sample oxidized for 24 h were and nf, respectively. The resulting capacitance spectra and IDMAP library are shown in Figure S12 (C,D). Strong distinction of the nanotubes was achieved with S of The clusters in IDMAP plot showed similar behavior to those for 800 nm films and the changes in capacitances ranged especially from 1 to 10 3 Hz. In contrast to data obtained with 800 nm dielectrics, sample-related alterations in capacitance were not noted at 10 4 Hz frequency. In addition, the low dispersion of the triplicates of the samples and water once again indicated good precision and absence of nonspecific adsorptions on electrodes. Concerning the increase in capacitance by reducing the thickness of the dielectrics from 800 to 400 nm, it is relevant to underline that the distance between the electrodes was kept the same, whereas the thickness of the sample was increased. Indeed, for each capacitor, the dielectric is composed of the solid dielectric film and sample. In these cases, the formation of the dielectric electric field is related to the mechanisms of dipolar polarization (dipoles of the solid film) and ionic conduction (e.g., π electrons of the nanotube), respectively. The increase in capacitance with the decrease in thickness of the oxide films suggests the ionic conduction mechanism on nanotube is more effective for polarization, leading to a higher dielectric electric field and, then dielectric constant. This phenomenon raises the capacitance according to Gauss law. 3 Figure S12. Classification of the modified MWCNTs. Spectra of real capacitance (C) (A) and IDMAP plot for MWCNTs at 10.0 ppm (B). Spectra (C) and distinction of MWCNTs at ppm with 400 nm dielectrics (D). Insets in (A,C) depict the ratios of the capacitance spectra of the MWCNTs in relation to water (W). The identification of the samples in (A) is also valid for (C). S8
