Résumé
Graphene and silver nanoparticles showed good application potentials in electrochemistry due to their unique folded layered structure and good catalytic performance. In this work, reduced graphene oxide-Ag nanoparticles ( rGO/AgNPs ) composite material was prepared in situ by using hydrothermal reduction synthesis method with sodium citrate as reducing agent. The material was then used as modified electrodes to study the electrochemical behaviors of bisphenol A ( BPA) . The results of cyclic voltammetry and square wave voltammetry showed that the fast oxidation-reduction reaction of BPA could occur on the rGO/AgNPs modified glassy carbon electrode and lead to the sensitive determination of BPA. Under the optimal conditions, the oxidation current of BPA was linear to its concentration in the range of 0 . 1-40 . 0 μmol/L and the detection limit was 50 . 7 nmol/L ( S/N=3 ) . The presented method was also used for the determination of BPA in plastic samples with satisfactory results.
