A Non-enzymatic Hydrogen Peroxide Sensor with Enhanced Sensitivity Based on Pt Nanoparticles

抄録

The non-enzymatic electrochemical sensing platform for hydrogen peroxide by using Pt-based nanoparticle was investigated. The characterization of PtNiCo-NPs was done by XRD, TEM, HRTEM, EDS, and XPS. A simple drop-casting technique was used to fabricate the nanomaterial on FTO electrode. The amperometric and cyclic voltammetric results illustrated that PtNiCo-NPs on FTO had excellent electrochemical performance over other mono or bimetallic materials. The catalytic performance for H₂O₂ sensing based on PtNiCo-NPs possessed a wide linear range from 5 μM to 16.5 mM with a low detection limit of 0.37 μM and a good sensitivity of 1374.4 μA mM⁻¹ cm⁻² at a scan rate of 20 mV s⁻¹ (vs. Ag/AgCl). This work presents a new way to produce a ternary nanomaterial for H₂O₂ sensing with excellent electrochemical performance. In addition, the fabricated nanomaterial showed no interferences for common interfering agents, which indicates the high specificity of the sensor. The PtNiCo-NPs have excellent stability and good reproducibility in real samples.
