Nickel Oxide-Carbon Soot-Cellulose Acetate Nanocomposite for the Detection of Mesitylene Vapour: Investigating the Sensing Mechanism Using an LCR Meter Coupled to an FTIR Spectrometer

Nanocomposite sensors were prepared using carbon soot (CNPs), nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO-NPs), and cellulose acetate (CA), which was used to detect and study the sensing mechanism of mesitylene vapour at room temperature. Synthesised materials were characterised using high-resolution transmissi...
