Abstract
This study investigates the versatile capabilities of iron-doped CeO2-modified carbon paste electrodes (FCO MCPE) for both enhanced uric acid (UA) detection and efficient energy storage applications. Iron-doped CeO2 nanoparticles were synthesized via combustion synthesis. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) showed a 29 % increase in anodic peak current (2.05 µA) with the FCO MCPE compared to bare carbon paste electrodes (BCPE) (1.59 µA), indicating improved catalytic properties. Analysis of scan rates revealed a diffusion-controlled oxidation process. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) demonstrated excellent linearity (R2 = 0.999) and low detection limits (LOD: 0.132 µM, LOQ: 0.442 µM). Selectivity tests confirmed the superior ability of the FCO MCPE to differentiate UA from dopamine (DA), with a high linearity (R2 = 0.998). Stability tests showed only an 11 % decrease in performance after 15 cycles. In super capacitor evaluations, FCO materials exhibited a high specific capacitance of 200.43 F g−1 at 2 mV/s and impressive cycling stability with 87.5 % capacitance retention after 5000 cycles. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) revealed efficient charge transfer with a peak specific capacitance of 52.39 F g−1 at 0.01 Hz. These findings underscore the potential of FCO MCPEs for both effective UA detection and efficient super capacitor applications.
