摘要: Abstract The electrocatalytic activity of ZnO nanoparticles attached to carboxylic acid functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was investigated controlling the morphology and size hydrothermally synthesized. A strong dependence on nanosized shape toward electrochemical oxidation dopamine, hydroquinone, tert-butylhydroquinone is demonstrated. High verified for all phenolic molecules when were produced at 120 °C 120 min, which resulted in flower-shape nanoparticles. Two other procedures production evaluated using microwave hydrothermal method spherical non-uniform cyclic voltammetry experiments Britton–Robinson buffer revealed that composite ZnO/MWCNT provided intense (around 4-fold) increase current decrease peak-to-peak separation three comparison with composites MWCNT-modified electrodes. Improved performance this sensor agreement impedance spectroscopy measurements. Amperometric measurements also improved (superior sensitivity).
