Abstract
In this work, MgAl-layered double hydroxide nanosheets arrays in-situ grown on commercial carbon paper (MA-LDH/CP) have been successfully fabricated via a facile one-pot hydrothermal method, which shows a hierarchical flower-like structure. The as-prepared MA-LDH/CP is used as a free-standing electrode for electrochemical detection of nitrite in aqueous media, showing high sensitivity with a low detection limit of 0.03 μM, and good anti-interference to other species. Moreover, it exhibits outstanding electrochemical stability without any deactivation in almost two months. The superior performance of MA-LDH/CP for nitrite determination is attributed to the 3D hierarchical architecture of MA-LDH nanolayers and a large number of exposed surface sites, which facilitate the electron transfer and nitrite adsorption.
