Preparation of bionic porous Al2O3 from green leaf of epipremnum aureum as a biotemplate

Bionic Al2O3 nanostructure was successfully prepared by using epipremnum aureum leaf as a bio-template. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TG) were used to characterize the Bionic Al2O3.The results showed that the optimum temperature is 1200??C, and the as received bionic Al2O3 was rhombohedral system with rod-like shape. The rod-like Al2O3 are all over the epipremnum aureum leaf blade, which perfectly builds up the original leaf surface morphology and porous structure of cross section.
