Abstract: Copper is material which is good in electrical and thermal conductivity since it is malleable and machinability. The pure copper with 99.9% of its composition can be categorized into standard UNS C11000 ETP. Copper oxide presents the speciality character in detection glucose for diabetes patient. However, copper oxide has high challenge in the making glucose detection because of nanosize and reaction between Copper oxides to glucose molecule. This project is to synthesis copper oxide from copper plate using thermal oxidation process in low temperature. Copper will be oxidized in range of 400 degree to 800 degree Celsius. The Cu₂O phases were increase when the temperature increases. The copper oxide will characterize using XRD, SEM, optical for physical properties. Reliability and detection mechanism of the copper oxide electrochemical performances of the electrode for detection of glucose were investigated by cyclic voltammetry.
