- Description
- Au and Pd nanoparticles were individually or together electrodeposited on top of polymerized cobalt tetraaminophthalocyanine (poly-CoTAPc). When Pd and Au nanoparticles are co-deposited together, the electrode is denoted as Au–Pd (co-deposited)/poly-CoTAPc-GCE. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to show the successful deposition of AuNPs, PdNPs and Au–Pd (co-deposited). The scanning electrochemical microscopy showed that Au–Pd (co-deposited)/poly-CoTAPc-GCE (with current range of 9.5–13.5 lA) was more conducting than Au–Pd (co-deposited)-GCE (with current range of 8–12 lA). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) showed that there was less resistance to charge transfer for Au–Pd (co-deposited)/poly-CoTAPc-GCE compared to the rest of the electrodes. Au–Pd (co-deposited)/poly-CoTAPc-GCE showed the best activity for the electrooxidation of hydrazine in terms of limit of detection (0.5 lM), hence shows promise as an electrocatalyst for electrooxidation of hydrazine.
