Porous Copper‐Modified Graphite Pencil Electrode for the Amperometric Detection of 4‐Nitrophenol

Abstract: To overcome the well‐known carbon electrodes surface fouling of phenols, we report on a simple and rapid method for the preparation of a disposable porous Cu‐modified graphite pencil electrode (Cu‐GPE) for sensing 4‐nitrophenol (4‐NP). The bare‐ and Cu‐modified graphite pencil electrodes were characterized by cyclic voltammetry and SEM. The two electrodes displayed distinct electrocatalytic activities in response to the electrochemical redox reaction of 4‐NP. A difference of three orders of magnitude is obtain… Show more

“…A variety of efforts have been applied toward preventing electrode surface fouling by phenols. For example, glassy carbon electrodes 32, boron‐doped diamond electrodes 33, and porous copper‐modified graphite pencil electrodes 34 have been tested in electrochemical phenol detection devices. A new approach to determining the presence or quantity of phenol in a water sample has been developed.…”

“…The relatively small change in the peak current from the first cycle to the second may have been due the stabilization of the electrode. This type of phenomenon has been observed for other nano/micro‐structured modified electrodes . We compared the electrocatalytic properties of NSCE 850 and the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) by also recording CVs using the GCE.…”

“…As can be seen in Table 4, the linearity range is wider than that for the DP voltammetric determination of nitrofurantoin (NF) at a mercury meniscus modified silver solid amalgam electrode (2-100 µ M), 36 determination of 2-amino-6-nitrobenzothiazole (ANBT) at a silver solid amalgam electrode modified by a microcrystalline natural graphite polystyrene composite film (0.2-10 µ M), 33 amperometric detection of nitrophenol (NP) at a porous copper modified PGE (50-850 µ M), 38 and cyclic voltammetric determination of trinitrotoluene (TNT) (2.5-40 and 40-120 mg L −1 ) and dinitrotoluene (DNT) (2-40 and 40-140 mg L −1 ) . 30,31 The sensitivity of the proposed method is higher than that of determination of NF, 36 ANBT and 5-nitrobenzimidazole (5-NBIA), 33 NP, 38 TNT, and DNT. 30,31 Moreover, it is comparable to that obtained with determination of niclosamide at a PGE 39 and determination of aromatic nitro compounds (nitrobenzene, TNT, and DNT) at a Pd nanoparticle graphene modified GCE.…”
