Abstract

A glassy carbon electrode modified with palladium nanoparticles decorated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (GCE/nanoPd-MWCNTs) was fabricated. Incorporation of palladium nanoparticles onto the carbon nantube surface by thermal decomposition of palladium acetate led to the fabrication of a sensor with a significant decrease in hydrazine electrooxidation potential. The sensor exhibited low detection limits, high sensitivity and selectivity, rapid response, and good stability toward hydrazine detection.

SEM images and cyclic voltammograms for a bare GCE, GCE/MWCNTs, and GCE/nanoPd-MWCNTs in the absence (dashed line) and presence (solid line) of 1 mM N2H4. Conditions: supporting electrolyte, phosphate buffer solution (0.1 M and pH 7); scan rate, 50 mVs−1.
