摘要
The demands of electrochemical glucose sensors without enzymes have gained considerable attention in the field of glucose sensors. Therefore, we have fabricated alpha-Fe2O3/rGO nanocomposite using the biosynthesis method. Syzygium aromaticum (clove) extract was used as a capping/stabilizing agent to synthesize alpha-Fe2O3/rGO nanocomposite. Synthesized alpha-Fe2O3/rGO nanocomposite was characterized by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and UV-visible spectroscopy techniques. The agglomerated rod-shaped morphology of synthesized alpha-Fe2O3/rGO nanocomposite was observed in SEM micrographs. The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis shows the surface areas of 187.644 m2/g for alpha-Fe2O3/rGO nanocomposite. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) was used to evaluate the electrochemical glucose sensing performance of a glassy carbon electrode modified by alpha-Fe2O3/rGO nanocomposite and 5 % Nafion solution (Nafion/alpha-Fe2O3/rGO/GCE). The modified Nafion/ alpha-Fe2O3/rGO/GCE was found to improve electrochemical glucose sensing performance. The modified Nafion/ alpha-Fe2O3/rGO/GCE exhibited a high sensitivity and limit of detection of 327.92 mu A mM-1 cm-2 and 0.6 mM respectively for electrochemical glucose sensing. The modified Nafion/alpha-Fe2O3/rGO/GCE shows good selectivity for glucose sensing over ascorbic acid and dopamine. The cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge/ discharge (GCD), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques were used for the evaluation of electrochemical supercapacitor performance of modified alpha-Fe2O3/rGO/stainless steel (alpha-Fe2O3/rGO/SS) electrode. The calculated values of specific capacitance, energy density, and power density for alpha-Fe2O3/rGO/SS electrode at the current density of 1 A/g were 310.2 F/g, 27.54 Wh/kg, and 309.71 W/kg respectively. These results indicate that the alpha-Fe2O3/rGO nanocomposite can be used as an electrochemical glucose sensor and supercapacitor.
