Electrochemical detection of ascorbic acid at MɡB₂- MWCNT and MɡB₂ /PEDOT hybrid modified glassy carbon electrodes
Magnesium boride–multiwalled carbon nanotube (MgB2-MWCNT) modified electrode and poly-3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene/magnesium boride (PEDOT/MgB2) modified electrode were used to study the electrochemical oxidation of ascorbic acid (AA). Abrasive immobilization technique was used to modify the surface o...

Magnesium boride–multiwalled carbon nanotube (MgB2-MWCNT) modified electrode and poly-3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene/magnesium boride (PEDOT/MgB2) modified electrode were used to study the electrochemical oxidation of ascorbic acid (AA). Abrasive immobilization technique was used to modify the surface of glassy carbon electrode (GCE) with MgB2-MWCNT mixture through mechanical attachment method while electrodeposition technique was used to prepare PEDOT/MgB2 through electropolymerization process. The modified MgB2-MWCNT electrode showed good electrocatalytic properties towards AA oxidation. Compared to bare GCE, the MgB2-MWCNT modified electrode enhanced the oxidation current for AA by about two folds. At the MgB2-MWCNT modified electrode surface, the oxidation of AA occurred through diffusion-adsorption process, where a reduction of 60% of the activation energy required to diffuse AA at bare GCE was recorded when MgB2-MWCNT modified GCE was used. The MgB2-MWCNT modified electrode exhibits a lower detection limit and better sensitivity towards AA oxidation compared to bare GCE; limit of detection for AA is 1.2 μM and sensitivity is 89 mA/M AA. The MgB2-MWCNT modified electrode achieved good reproducibility for AA oxidation in which %RSD for both oxidation current and oxidation peak potential were in the range of 4-7% and 2-6% respectively. A recovery rate of 100.70 ± 4.01% was obtained when the MgB2-MWCNT modified electrode was used to detect AA in real samples. The PEDOT/MgB2 modified electrode demonstrated excellent electrocatalytic ability towards the mediation of AA oxidation.
