Sol−Gel Synthesis and Characterization of Carbon/Ceramic Composite Electrodes

Abstract: We have fabricated carbon/ceramic composite electrodes with an interconnected network of carbon particles in a silica-based gel. The resulting electrodes were porous and electrically conductive and exhibited excellent stability. BET adsorption measurements combined with electrochemical techniques such as cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy showed that 50% of the carbon surface area was accessible electrochemically.

“…The latter is composed of interconnected graphite particle within mesoporous silicate matrix [38]. The size of the conducting particles is by about three orders of magnitude larger than the diameter of the pores, typically ca.10 nm [1].…”

“…Leaching of these entrapped species does not occur or occurs very slowly. Sol-gel-derived electrochemical biosensors mainly release on two basic configurations: conductive ceramic composite (bulk modification) [29] and electrode surface coating [30]. Although the two methods have been used successfully for immobilization of glucose oxidase and electron transfer mediators, in the bulk modification method a substantial amount of enzyme and carbon nanotube are needed for the electrode fabrication.…”
