Growth of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles on Graphene Assembly Using to Detect of Acetone Concentrations

Article Preview

Abstract:

Graphene is of apply in wide range of research fields and may even motivate researchers to develop a new hybrid material with experience properties. In this works, growth of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) using chemical reduction method was reported. Particle size, morphology and crystal structure of ZnO/rGO were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique, respectively. Sensing application of ZnO/rGO was discovered. ZnO/rGO was used as an active material for sensing acetone diluted in water. The preliminary results showed that the sensitivity of acetone sensor.
