Exploitation of 2D Cu-MOF nanosheets as a unique electroactive material for ultrasensitive Cu(II) ion estimation in various real samples

초록

Herein, hybrid carbon sensor has been developed with graphite sheets as a matrix, tricresyl phosphate (TCP) as a plasticizer and nanosheets of 2D Cu-MOF (metal-organic framework) as an electroactive material for the ultrasensitive Cu(II) ion detection in various real samples. Where, the present study proves the efficiency of 2D Cu-MOF as a promising sensing material for the development of Cu(II) ion selective carbon sensor. The developed 2D Cu-MOF nanosheets based sensor containing 2D Cu-MOF: TCP: graphite in the ratio of 2.67: 30.54: 66.79 (% wt/wt) displayed unique Nernstian behavior over two linearity ranges of 1.0 x 10(-11)-1.0 x 10(-9) and 1.0 x 10(-5)-1.0 x 10(-1) mol L-1 with slopes of 29.5 +/- 0.25 and 29.6 +/- 0.13 mV decade(-1), respectively. The fabricated carbon sensor achieved a widely pH independency, fast response time and superior thermal stability with highly selective and ultrasensitive performance. Moreover, It has been efficiently applied for the Cu(II) ion potentiometric estimation in human hair, sesames seeds, two different tea infusions and tap water real samples. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V.
