چکیده
In this communication, we demonstrate for the first time that ultrathin graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄) nanosheets can serve as a low-cost, green, and highly efficient electrocatalyst toward the reduction of hydrogen peroxide. We further demonstrate its application for electrochemical glucose biosensing in both buffer solution and human serum medium with a detection limit of 11 μM and 45 μM, respectively.

A scalable chemical route to soluble acidified graphitic carbon nitride: an ideal precursor for isolated ultrathin g-C3N4 nanosheets.
We propose an efficient method to synthesize large-scale soluble acidified graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4). The as-prepared material exhibits the characteristics of a poly-ammonium salt and is soluble in several solvents with good dissolution-recrystallization reversible equilibrium. The pH value- and temperature-dependent solubility of the acidified g-C3N4 facilitates its separation and puri...

متن کاملHydrogen adsorption by g-C3N4 and graphene oxide nanosheets
The adsorption behavior of hydrogen for synthesized graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and graphene oxide nanosheets was compared. The structure of the prepared g-C3N4 and graphene oxide samples were studied using TEM, FT-IR spectroscopy and surface area analysis. Textural results of the prepared nanosheets show that the surface area, total pore volume, and average internal diameter of g-C3N4 an...
متن کاملA green chemistry approach for facile synthesis of functionalized boron nitride nanosheets
The lack of a high-yield, renewable and low-cost synthesis method limits the potential applications of boron nitride with impressive characterizations. In this study, a facile method is developed for the preparation of chemically functionalized boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) by considering the quantity and quality of chemical materials involved in the synthesis process. The proposed green met...
