•A novel Nb2CTx/PANI-based NH3 sensor directly driven by a facile TENG is proposed.•The Nb2CTx/PANI-2 sensor exhibits a superior sensitivity (2.87 % ppm−1) toward a wide sensing range of 1–100 ppm NH3.•High RH influence on sensing response of the Nb2CTx/PANI-2 sensor is 8.94 times lower than that of...
