Introduction: Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) exhibit a wide range of biomedical applications majorly used as antiinflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, and anti-microbial activity and other biomedical applications because they show less toxicity and are very compatible. Zinc metal is an inorganic and essential element in the human body at the trace level. ZnO NPs are also GRAS substances (Generally Recognized As Safe).

Toxic acetone gas emissions and leakage are a potential threat to the environment and human health. Gas sensors founded on metal oxide semiconductors (MOS) have become an effective strategy for toxic gas detection with their mature process. In the present work, an efficient acetone gas sensor based on Au-modified ZnO porous nanofoam (Au/ZnO) is synthesized by polyvinylpyrrolidone-blowing followed by a calcination method.

This work presents a simple process for the development of flexible acetone gas sensors based on zinc oxide/graphene/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate). The gas sensors were prepared by inkjet printing, which was followed by a metal sparking process involving different sparking times. The successful decoration of ZnO nanoparticles (average size ~19.
