Zinc oxide nano particles prepared using starch as capping agent were prepared and then incorporated into a zinc terephthalate framework. ZnO@Zinc terephthalate framework composites were then characterised by FTIR, XRD, SEM and thermogravimetric analysis. N2 adsorption isotherms were obtained to calculate BET surface area and pore parameter of the framework.
