Abstract
In this article, a TiO2/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composite was synthesized from rGO and soluble titanium hydroxide‐peroxide complexes. The obtained materials were characterized by X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption/desorption, Raman spectroscopy and energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy‐elementary mapping. The TiO2/rGO composite was used as an electrode modifier for developing an electrochemical sensor to simultaneous analysis of Cd(II) and Pb(II) by using differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DP‐ASV). Under optimal conditions, the linear correlation between the stripping peak current and the metal ion concentration is good in the range of 5–100 ppb for both metals (R2 ≥ 0.998), and a low detection limit (3.17 ppb for Cd(II) and 2.42 ppb for Pb(II)) was obtained. The interference study revealed that some metal cations had little influence on the DP‐ASV signals of Cd(II) and Pb(II). In addition, the developed electrode exhibited satisfied reproducibility and repeatability. The TiO2/rGO‐modified electrode was tested toward the detection of Cd(II) and Pb(II) in river waters and the obtained exceptional recoveries and results were further associated with AAS results. This study indicates that the TiO2/rGO composite might be an alternative for practical applications in the electrochemical determination of heavy metal ions in aquatic solutions.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
