Abstract

In modern approaches for nanomaterials synthesis, ultrasonication plays an important role in providing the larger surface area and smaller crystalline size properties that are favorable to electrochemical techniques. Herein, we report the tin (IV) oxide on graphene oxide nanoparticles were synthesized (SnO2@GO NPs) by ultrasonic methodology (UZ SONOPULS HD 3400 Ultrasonic homogenizer) with the total power of 400W and the (frequency of 20kHz; 140W/dm3). The formation of as-prepared SnO2@GO NPs and its surface morphology were scrutinized over XRD, XPS, TEM, and FESEM. Besides, the sonochemically prepared SnO2@GO NPs were employed for the determination of environmental hazardous mercury (Hg). As a result, the modified electrode acquired a very low-level detection limit of 1.2nM with a wider range of 0.01-10.41-µM and 14.52-225.4-µM for the detection of Hg. Finally, the practical applicability of SnO2@GO NPs in spiked human blood serum and tuna fish samples shows appreciable found and recovery values. .
