摘要
Graphite oxide (GO) is a pH-dependent amphiphile with hydrophilic edges and a more hydrophobic basal plane. It was found that when the hydrophobic prototype ionic liquid (IL) of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMIM][PF6]) was added into GO water, it experienced changes from coagulation to being redispersed in water phase by constantly turning its pH to alkali condition. Then new aqueous dispersions of GO-[BMIM][PF6] "water" formed after facile sonicate. The introduction of [BMIM][PF6] not only minimize the defects of poor electrical conductivity of GO and more interesting is that the carbon nanotube (CNT) can be highly dispersed in this GO-[BMIM][PF6] water through a simple and facile ultrasonic method at room temperature, forming a new composite of GO-[BMIM][PF6]-CNT with high dispersibility. This novel composite enhanced its electrochemical signal obviously in the measurement of dopamine (DA) in biological systems and exhibited a wider linear response ranging from 8.0 x 10(-12)-1.5 x 10(-5) M. The detection limit of 3.0 x 10(-12) Mat a signal to-noise ratio of 3 was two orders of magnitude lower than that reported previously. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
