Abstract
Bimetallic oxide/carbon nanomaterials hybrids were chemically synthesized and fully characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The elemental analysis confirmed the successful formation of MnCo2O4/carbon nanomaterials. The fingerprint area of FTIR showed the incorporation of the metal oxides onto CNTs and GO surfaces. Morphological investigations of the hybrids, using FESEM and HRTEM, revealed the uniform distribution of bimetallic oxides nanostructures over the surface of carbon nanomaterials. Furthermore, electrochemical characteristics were explored using the CV and EIS. The obtained electrochemical results demonstrated significant improvements in the electrocatalytic properties, in addition to the direct and fast electron transfer provided by the modified surfaces whereas the MnCo2O4/CNTs were exploited for the nano-enzymatic amperometric detection of hydrogen peroxide as an example to show the promising applications of such nanomaterials in designing high-efficiency nano-sensors and biosensors.
