摘要
Reduced graphene oxide hollow microspheres (rGO HMS) were encapsulated with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) by spray drying. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy were used to characterize the AuNP/rGO HMS. When placed on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE), it exhibits excellent electrochemical catalytic properties towards the oxidation of nitrite. The electrocatalytic properties were studied using various electrochemical techniques. Compared to AuNP-decorated graphene sheet based electrodes documented in the literature, the one presented here provides a larger surface area. This enhances the catalytic activity towards nitrite. The electrode, typically operated at a working potential of 0.82 V (vs. SCE), has a linear response in the 5.0 μM to 2.6 mM nitrate concentration range, and a detection limit as low as 0.5 μM (at an S/N ratio of 3).
