Synthesis of PtxSn/MWCNTs and their Application in Non‐enzymatic Glucose and Hydrogen Peroxide Sensors

Pt_xSn/MWCNTs (x=1, 2, 3) nanocomposites were synthesized by chemical reduction. Comparing all of the materials, the results revealed that the best material was Pt₃Sn/MWCNTs. The sensor based on Pt₃Sn/MWCNTs exhibited excellent catalytic activities towards glucose and hydrogen peroxide. Sensing of glucose had a double‐linear range: one was between 50 μM and 550 μM, the other was between 1.35 mM and 16.35 mM. These were due to the fact that more and more intermediate species were adsorbed onto the electrode surface with increasing concentration of glucose, which limited the following glucose oxidation. Meanwhile, the sensor also had a linear response range between 0.05 mM and 18.95 mM for hydrogen peroxide. Furthermore, the glucose and hydrogen peroxide sensors exhibited excellent selectivity, stability, and reproducibility. Thus the sensors had potential utilities in the detection of glucose and hydrogen peroxide.     

Electrochemically polymerised composites of multi-walled carbon nanotubes and poly(vinylferrocene) and their use as modified electrodes: application to glucose sensing

We report electrochemical composites of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with poly(vinylferrocene) (PVF). The polymeric architecture is prepared by first immobilising the MWCNTs onto a glassy carbon substrate, which acts to introduce electrical current into the composite, with the MWCNTs acting as 'molecular wires'. PVF films of varying surface coverages can be obtained by simply controlling the time a constant potential of +0.7 V (vs. Ag) wire is applied; with the characteristics of the derivatised MWCNTs examined by cyclic voltammetry and scanning electron microscopy.The application of the composite for glucose determination in aqueous solutions was investigated using linear sweep voltammetry, where it was found that the composites supported on glassy carbon substrates are superior to bare glassy carbon electrodes polymerised with PVF, likely due to the comparatively higher number of electrocatalytic centres in the former. This protocol was successfully transferred to prepare a PVF-MWCNT-paste electrode which was applied to glucose detection in diluted laked horse blood. The obtained results show potential and promising practical application for the polymer-derivatised MWCNT-modified electrodes in amperometric sensors for glucose determination.

Three dimensional graphene‐multiwalled carbon nanotube nano composite (3DG/MWCNTs−Nc) was synthesized by simple hydrothermal method for the amperometric determination of caffeic acid (CA). The prepared nanocomposite was characterized by scanning electron microscopic technique (SEM), ultraviolet‐visible spectroscopy (UV), Raman spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy (IR). Moreover, the interfacial electron transfer properties of the modified electrode were carried out by the electro chemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Besides, the electro chemical performance of the modified electrode was carried out by the cyclic voltammetry (CV) and amperometric (i‐t ) technique. The proposed electrode was exhibited an enhanced electrocatalytic activity towards the detection of CA. Under the optimal condition, the 3DG/MWCNTs−Nc modified electrode displayed a linear range from 0.2 to 174 μM, detection limit (LOD) 17.8 nM and sensitivity of 5.8308 μA μM⁻¹ cm⁻² and on applied potential + 0.2 V. These result showed, 3DG/MWCNTs−Nc modified electrodes showed good repeatability, reproducibility, and higher stability. In addition, the fabricated electrode was then successfully used to determine the CA in real samples with satisfactory recoveries. Which suggests that the 3DG/MWCNTs−Nc as a robust sensing materials for the electrochemical detection of CA.

A highly sensitive nonenzymatic glucose sensor based on NiO-modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes

A highly sensitive and selective glucose biosensor has been constructed by using highly dispersed NiO nanoparticles supported on well-aligned MWCNTs (NiO/MWCNTs) as sensing interface. The NiO/MWCNTs nanocomposite was synthesized by magnetron sputtering deposition of NiO nanoparticles on vertically aligned carbon nanotubes. The nanocomposite electrode showed high electrochemical activity towards the oxidation of glucose in 0.20 M NaOH solution. At an applied potential of +0.50 V, it gives a fast response time (< 5 s) and a linear dependence (R?=?0.997) on the glucose concentration up to 7.0 mM with an extraordinarily high sensitivity of 1.77 mA mM^-1 cm^-2 and a detection limit of 2 μM. The interference by the oxidation of common interfering species such as ascorbic acid, dopamine, uric acid, lactose, and fructose is effectively avoided. The electrode was used to analyze glucose concentration in human serum samples. It allows highly sensitive, stable, and fast amperometric sensing of glucose, which is promising for the development of nonenzymatic glucose sensors.     

Fabrication of Glucose Biosensor Based on Encapsulation of Glucose‐Oxidase on Sol‐Gel Composite at the Surface of Glassy Carbon Electrode Modified with Carbon Nanotubes and Celestine Blue

A simple procedure was developed to prepare a glassy carbon electrode modified with multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and Celestin blue. Cyclic voltammograms of the modified electrode show stable and a well defined redox couple with surface confined characteristic at wide pH range (2–12). The formal potential of redox couple (E′) shifts linearly toward the negative direction with increasing solution pH. The surface coverage of Celestine blue immobilized on CNTs glassy carbon electrode was approximately 1.95×10^?10 mol cm^?2. The charge transfer coefficient (α) and heterogeneous electron transfer rate constants (k_s) for GC/MWCNTs/Celestine blue were 0.43 and 1.26 s^?1, respectively. The modified electrode show strong catalytic effect for reduction of hydrogen peroxide and oxygen at reduced overpotential. The glucose biosensor was fabricated by covering a thin film of sol‐gel composite containing glucose oxides (GOx) on the surface of Celestine blue /MWCNTs modified GC electrode. The biosensor can be used successfully for selective detection of glucose based on the decreasing of cathodic peak current of oxygen. The detection limit, sensitivity and liner calibration rang were 0.3 μM, 18.3 μA/mM and 10 μM–6.0 mM, respectively. The accuracy of the biosensor for glucose detection was evaluated by detection of glucose in a serum sample, using standard addition protocol. In addition biosensor can reach 90% of steady currents in about 3.0 sec and interference effect of the electroactive existing species (ascorbic acid–uric acid and acetaminophen) was eliminated. Furthermore, the apparent Michaelis–Menten constant 2.4 mM, of GOx on the nano composite exhibits excellent bioelectrocatalytic activity of immobilized enzyme toward glucose oxidation. Excellent electrochemical reversibility of redox couple, high stability, technically simple and possibility of preparation at short period of time are of great advantages of this procedure for modification of glucose biosensor.     

Electrocatalytic oxidation of the reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide at carbon ionic liquid electrode modified with polythionine/multi-walled carbon nanotubes composite

A carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) was modified with a polythionine (PTh)/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) composite and used for the detection of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). The electrode was prepared by electrochemical polymerization of thionine on the MWCNTs in neutral medium. Cyclic voltammetry indicated that the electrode was capable of mediating the oxidation of NADH at an overpotential as low as 0.03 V. Amperometric experiments showed that a sensitive and stable response towards NADH is obtained within 5 s. The linear range for the determination of NADH is from 0.8 μmol L^?1 to 422 μmol L^?1, with a detection limit of 0.26 μmol L^?1 (S/N = 3). The wide linear range, lower detection limit and faster response towards NADH suggests that the new method potentially is useful for developing NAD⁺-dependent enzyme-based biosensors.

Ultrasensitive Voltammetric Detection of Trace Lead(II) and Cadmium(II) Using MWCNTs‐Nafion/Bismuth Composite Electrodes

Multiwall carbon nanotubes were dispersed in Nafion (MWCNTs‐NA) solution and used in combination with bismuth (MWCNTs‐NA/Bi) for fabricating composite sensors to determine trace Pb(II) and Cd(II) by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV). The electrochemical properties of the MWCNTs‐NA/Bi composites film modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) were evaluated. The synergistic effect of MWCNTs and bismuth composite film was obtained for Pb(II) and Cd(II) detection with improved sensitivity and reproducibility. Linear calibration curves ranged from 0.05 to 100 μg/L for Pb(II) and 0.08 to 100 μg/L for Cd(II). The determination limits (S/N=3) were 25 ng/L for Pb and 40 ng/L for Cd, which compared favorably with previously reported methods in the area of electrochemical Pb(II) and Cd(II) detection. The MWCNTs‐NA/Bi composite film electrodes were successfully applied to determine Pb(II) and Cd(II) in real sample, and the results of the present method agreed well with those of atomic absorption spectroscopy.     

Preparation of 3D MnO2/Polyaniline/Graphene Hybrid Material via Interfacial Polymerization as High‐Performance Supercapacitor Electrode

MnO₂/polyaniline/graphene composite as a supercapacitor electrode material was synthesized through an interfacial polymerization approach in the interface of oil/water phase. The as‐synthesized MPG is characterized by infrared spectroscopy, XRD, XPS, SEM and TEM, and its electrochemical performance is measured by cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge/discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The 3D nanostructure of MPG and loose nanorod structure of polyaniline (PANI) coated with round MnO₂ pellets could be clearly observed. The maximum energy density of MPG is 45.4 Wh/kg (at a power density of 67.8 kW/kg) and the highest power density is 229.2 kW/kg (at an energy density of 25.7 Wh/kg). The capacitance retentions after 500 cycles at the scan rate of 5 mV/s for MGP composite and PANI/graphene are 70.4% and 59.1%, respectively, and the capacitance values after 500 cycles are 158.4 F/g and 114.8 F/g, respectively. The improved performance of MPG is due to the 3D nanostructure, loose nanorod structure of PANI and stable support of graphene, which prevent the mechanical deformation effectively during the fast charge/discharge process and facilitate the diffusion of the electrolyte ions into the inner region of active materials. The composite material is very promising for the next generation of high‐performance supercapacitors electrode.

Insights into MWCNTs/polyimide nanocomposites: from synthesis to application as free-standing flexible electrodes in low-cost micro-supercapacitors

In the pursuit to enlarge the library of polyimide materials for energy applications, new polyimide/MWCNTs composite films have been developed by MWCNTs-assisted polycondensation reaction of a hydroxyl and triphenylmethane-containing diamine with benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride targeting to highlight their electrical storage capability as flexible electrodes in micro-supercapacitors (mSCs). The Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, proton nuclear magnetic resonance, UV–vis, fluorescence, and Raman spectroscopies were used to demonstrate the evolution of interfacial interactions between MWCNTs and the precursors (diamine monomer and intermediate polyamidic acid) and polyimide matrix that proved to be the origin of MWCNTs homogeneous dispersion. Thus, composite films incorporating 1, 3, 5, and 10 w.t.% MWCNTs were obtained and thoroughly investigated with regard to their morphology, mechanical behavior, thermal stability, and electrical conductivity. The electrochemical performance of these composites was first analyzed in a classical three-electrode cell by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge in both aqueous and organic electrolyte systems. By far, the best electrical storage capacity was obtained with the composite polyimide film containing 10% MWCNTs that was further used as both active material and current collector in a flexible symmetric mSC realized by a straightforward and low-cost procedure. In the attempt to better exploit the advantages of this composite film, it was layered with a graphite-containing paint and tested as an electrode in a flexible mSC, which provided satisfactory results. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the electrical charge storage capability of a polyimide/MWCNTs free-standing film as a flexible electrode in mSCs, which do not require time- and resource-consuming processing steps.

Direct‐methanol fuel cells are proton‐exchange fuel cell in which methanol is used as the fuel. The important advantage of these fuel cells is the simplicity of transport and storage of methanol. In this study, methanol fuel cell electrocatalysts including graphene quantum dots (GQDs), functionalized multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (f‐MWCNTs) and GQDs/f‐MWCNTs composite were synthesized.

Fabrication of highly sensitive and selective nanocomposite film based on CuNPs/fullerene-C60/MWCNTs: An electrochemical nanosensor for trace recognition of paracetamol

Designing an electrochemical sensor for versatile clinical applications is a sophisticated task and how dedicatedly functionalized composite materials can perform on this stage is a challenge for today and tomorrow's Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. In the present work, we demonstrate a new strategy for the development of novel electrochemical sensor based on catalytic nanocomposite film. Fullerene-C₆₀ and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were dropped on the pre-treated carbon paste electrode (CPE) and copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) electrochemically deposited on the modified CPE to form nanocomposite film of CuNPs/C₆₀/MWCNTs/CPE. In this work, an electrochemical method based on square wave voltammetry (SWV) employing CuNPs/C₆₀/MWCNTs/CPE has been presented for the recognition and determination of paracetamol (PT). Developed electrochemical sensor was characterized using cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and chronocoulometry. The composite film made the fabricated sensor to display high sensitivity and good selectivity for PT detection. The influence of the optimization parameters such as pH, accumulation time, deposition potential, scan rate and effect of loading of composite mixture of C₆₀-MWCNTs and CuNPs on the electrochemical performance of the sensor were evaluated. A linear range from 4.0 × 10⁻⁹ to 4.0 × 10⁻⁷ M for PT detection was obtained with a detection limit of 7.3 × 10⁻¹¹ M. The fabricated sensor was successfully applied to the detection of PT in biological samples with good recovery ranging from 99.21 to 103%.     

镧掺杂的二氧化锰/碳纳米管电化学超级电容器复合电极

尽管在二氧化锰/多壁碳纳米管（MnO₂/MWCNTs）上获得了较高的比电容,低电导率仍是制约MnO₂担载量或膜厚度提高的主要障碍.另一个问题是MnO₂/MWCNTs的循环稳定性远低于活性炭.所以截止到目前这一新型材料的应用仍然受到很大的限制.本文采用原位还原的方法制备镧掺杂二氧化锰/多壁碳纳米管电化学超级电容器复合电极材料.分别通过透射电镜（TEM）、扫描电镜（SEM）、X射线衍射（XRD）和傅里叶变换红外（FTIR）光谱等技术对这些复合材料的形貌与结构进行了分析.采用循环伏安法、恒电流充放电法和交流阻抗法对其进行了电化学性能的研究.研究结果表明,通过还原MnO₄^-可以在MWCNTs上形成La掺杂MnO₂复合材料.La掺杂降低了复合电极的电阻,这是因为La的引入可以增大MnO₂的晶格缺陷,从而提高材料的电导率以及电极的电化学性能.因此La掺杂是克服MnO₂本征导电性差的有效途径之一.掺杂La可以在不增大电极电阻的情况下提高MnO₂的担载量或膜厚度.La掺杂的更重要的作用是使以MnO₂/MWCNTs作电极的对称电化学超级电容器的循环性能得到显著改善.此外,La掺杂也使复合电极的比电容得到一定程度的提高.
