We describe the synthesis and characterization of bicontinuous cubic poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) conducting polymer gels prepared within lyotropic cubic poly(oxyethylene)10 nonylphenol ether (NP-10) templates with Ia3[combining macron]d (gyroid, GYR) symmetry. The chemical polymerization of EDOT monomer in the hydrophobic channels of the NP-10 GYR phase was initiated by AgNO3, a mi...

the electrochemical behavior of a modified carbon paste electrode (mcpe) with n,n′ethylenbis(salicylideneiminato)copper(ii) complex ([cu(ii)-salen]) was investigated as a newsensor for cystein. the britton-robinson buffer with ph 5, 10% modifier in electrode, potentialscanning rate of 20 mvs-1 and puls height of 50 mv were used as the optimum condition for thedetermination of cysteine using car...

The structure of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)–poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT Æ PSS) consists of an insulating PSS layer surrounding doped PEDOT grains. In this study, X-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS and UPS) are used to investigate the composition and electronic structure of as-loaded and lightly sputtered PEDOT Æ PSS films. The sputtered film shows a significant increa...

Advanced materials that are highly biocompatible and easily modifiable with biomolecules are of great importance for bio-interfacing and the development of biodevices. Here, a biocompatible conducting polymer based nanocomposite was electrochemically synthesized through the electropolymerization of poly(3, 4-ethylene dioxythiophene) (PEDOT) in the presence of graphene oxide (GO) as the only dop...

Red phosphorus has attracted more attention as a promising sodium storage material due to its ultra-high theoretical capacity and suitable sodiation potential. However, the low intrinsic electrical conductivity large volume change of pristine red lead high polarization fast fading during cycling. Herein, surface synergistic protections on composite are successfully proposed by conductive poly(3...

In this paper, a nanostructured modified electrode was fabricated by incorporating of 2,2′-[1,9-nonanediylbis(nitriloethylidyne)]-bis-hydroquinone (NNH) as a newly synthesized modifier and TiO2 nanoparticles to the carbon paste (MTCPE) and then was used for the electroanalysis of epinephrine (EP). The electrochemical studies were carried out by using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperom...

A modified electrode was prepared by modification of the carbon paste electrode (CPE) with graphene nano-sheets. The fabricated modified electrode exhibited an electrocatalytic activity toward gallic acid (GA) oxidation because of good conductivity, low electron transfer resistance and catalytic effect. The graphene modified CPE had a lower overvoltage and enhanced electrical current respect to...

in the present work, an efficient modified carbon-ceramic electrode by multi-walled carbon nanotubes/ionic liquid nanocomposite (mwcnts/il/cce) was prepared through a simple and repeatable procedure. the introduced modified electrode was used for the study of the electrochemical behaviour and determination of tryptophan (trp) in the presence of uric acid (ua) using cyclic voltammetry (cv), diff...

In the present work, the modified nickel electrode was electrochemically fabricated and tested for the electro-oxidation of paracetamol in alkaline media. The methods of cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronoamperometry (CA), and impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to determine kinetic parameters such as transfer coefficient (α), the catalytic reaction rate constants (k), and the diffusion coeffici...
