Nano Composite System Based on fullerene-functionalized carbon nanotubes/ionic liquid: Simultaneous oxidation of hydrazine and hydroxylamine

the electrocatalytic oxidation of hydrazine and hydroxylamine were investigated by a fullerene (C60)-functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and Ionic liquid (IL) modified glassy carbon electrode. At the modifiedelectrode surface, the peaks of differential pulse voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry for hydrazine and hydroxylamineoxidation were clearly separated from each other when they co-existed in solution. Thus, it was possible to simultaneouslydetermine hydrazine and hydroxylamine in the samples at a C60-functionalized CNTs and IL nanocomposite (C60–CNTs/IL/GCE). The DPV method also exhibited the detection limits of 17 ± 2 and 28 ± 2 nM for hydrazine andhydroxylamine, respectively.
