Development of nanostructured gas sensing material as an ethylene gas detector

Gas etilena adalah bahan penting dalam pemasaran produk pertanian segar kerana ia boleh digunakan secara komersial untuk hormon tanaman tiruan, mengawal dan memantau proses pemasakan buah-buahan klimaterik. Menyedari kepentingan alat pengesan gas etilena untuk proses pemasakan buah-buahan, banyak ka...
