A hydrogen peroxide sensor based on TNM functionalized reduced graphene oxide grafted with highly monodisperse Pd nanoparticles

A hydrogen peroxide sensor based on TNM functionalized reduced graphene oxide grafted with highly monodisperse Pd nanoparticles
Addressed herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of a tert-nonyl mercaptan (TNM) functionalized reduced graphene oxide (rGO) supported palladium (Pd) nanoparticles (NPs) (Pd/TNM@rGO) as electrochemical sensor. The highly monodisperse Pd/TNM@rGO nanocomposite was applied for electrochemical determination of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at a potential range of −0.6 to +0.8 V. The Pd/TNM@rGO sensor demonstrated very high activity, sensitivity, reusability and durability toward H2O2 sensing. The well dispersed Pd/TNM@rGO nanocomposite has been characterized by using several analytical techniques such as, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The catalytic performance of prepared biosensor was also characterized by using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry (CA) methods. The proposed H2O2 biosensor showed a broad linear range up to 12 mM, and a very low detection limit of 0.0025 μM, with a quick response time of less than 10 s. Additionally, the biosensor exhibited great capability, reproducibility and durability for the examination of H2O2.
