• , Udayana University 80231 Badung, Bali, Indonesia 10.3762/bjnano.16.45 Abstract Flame synthesis using liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) as the precursor gas to produce carbon nanofibers (CNFs) is an economical alternative to conventional chemical vapor deposition methods using single-component fuels such as

• synthesis; liquefied petroleum gas (LPG); nanomaterial synthesis; Introduction Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and carbon nanofibers (CNFs) have gained significant interest because of their distinctive properties and their wide range of applications in nanotechnology [1][2][3]. CNTs are a modified version of CNFs

• graphene sheath. These nanofibers can have three different structural configurations including herringbone, tubular, and platelet configurations [4][5]. A premixed flame of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) can be used as a fuel source for carbon nanomaterial growth processes. A premixed flame is a specific

• stronger regulating effect on the piezoelectric filtration of free carriers. A ZnO-based self-powered gas sensor (SPGS) can be used to detect H2S, NH3 [96][97], ethanol [91][98][99][100], CO2 [101][102] and other gases [103][104][105]. A ZnSnO3/ZnO NW-based PENG was used to detect liquefied petroleum gas

• (LPG) with high sensitivity, selectivity, and reliability [21]. The sensitivity of ZnSnO3/ZnO (1 h) NWs in 4000 ppm H2S, H2, ethanol, methanol, LPG, and saturated water vapor was measured. The sensitivity of ZnSnO3/ZnO NW for LPG is much higher than for other gases, as shown in Figure 5g

• ][14]. Among them, iron oxide is a semiconductor that has been used in many gas sensing applications because of its low cost and simple preparation [14][15]. This oxide has been used in the detection of acetone, H2S, several alcohols, CO, acetic acid and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) [16] and forming
