Abstract
In this study, magnetic MnxCo3-xO4 microboxes were synthesized in a simple process by annealing Mn3[Co(CN)6]2·nH2O Prussian blue analogues. The as-prepared nanohybrids were comprehensively characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. For the first time, we assessed the use of MnxCo3-xO4 microboxes as an effective sensing template for enhanced hydrazine, hydrogen peroxide, and nitrobenzene by electrochemical detection. The novel MnxCo3-xO4 microboxes can provide new features for electrochemical sensor applications because of the excellent electrocatalytic properties of Mn-Co mixed-valence transition metal oxides. The successful fabrication of MnxCo3-xO4 microboxes may facilitate the design of novel electrochemical sensors and promote the development of new electrode materials.
