A chemically modified carbon paste electrode with multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) was prepared and used as a sensor for Cu2+  ion. The unique chemical and physical properties of CNT have paved the way  to  new  and  improved  sensing  devices.  A  central  composite chemometrics  design  was  applied  for  multivariate  optimization  of the  effects  of  three  significant  parameters  (...

a novel modified ni-zsm-5 nanozeolite was fabricated via an organic template-free hydrothermal route. the average particle size of ni-zsm-5 nanozeolite was calculated to be 85 nm by scanning electronic microscopy. then, carbon paste electrode (cpe) was modified by ni-zsm-5 nanozeolite and ni2+ ions were then incorporated to the nanozeolite matrix. electrochemical behavior of this electrode was ...

We report a strategy for fabrication of sub-micron, multifunctional carbon electrodes and application of these electrodes as probes for scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) and scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM). The fabrication process utilized chemical vapor deposition of parylene, followed by thermal pyrolysis to form conductive carbon and then further deposition of parylene to...

An electrochemical method employing a carbon nanocomposite electrode was developed to measure thioridazine.
