	We report a BiFeO3/graphene oxide (BFO/GO) perovskite, synthesized using a CTAB-functionalized glycine combustion route, as a potential material for acetone gas sensing applications. The physicochemical properties of the developed perovskite were analysed using XRD, FE-SEM, TEM, HRTEM, EDAX and XPS. The gas sensing performance was analysed for various test gases, including ethanol, acetone, propanol, ammonia, nitric acid, hydrogen sulphide and trimethylamine at a concentration of 500 ppm. Among the test gases, the developed BFO showed the best selectivity towards acetone, with a response of 61\% at an operating temperature of 250 degrees C. All the GO-loaded BFO samples showed an improved gas sensing performance compared with pristine BFO in terms of sensitivity, the response/recovery times, the transient response curves and the stability. The 1 wt\% GO-loaded BiFeO3 sensor showed the highest sensitivity of 89\% towards acetone (500 ppm) at an operating temperature of 250 degrees C. These results show that the developed perovskites have significant potential for use in acetone gas sensing applications. CTAB-functionalized glycine combustion yields BiFeO3/graphene oxide (BFO/GO) perovskite for acetone gas detection.</p>
