Tweaking the electrocatalytic efficiency of sonochemically synthesized Bi₂S₃ nanorods through decoration with f-MWCNTs: A selective on-site detection of METOL in environmental samples.

ABSTRACT: In this study, we have established a highly conductive Bi₂S₃/f-MWCNT nanocomposite through a sonochemical approach using a probe sonicator (100 W, 25 kHz), which functions as an effective electrochemical probe for the detection of 4-(methylamino)phenol sulfate or METOL (MET) in environmental water samples. MET, a widely used chemical in hair dyes and the photographic industries, poses significant environmental concerns when released into water systems, contributing to water pollution and ecological disruption. Comprehensive characterization techniques confirmed the structural integrity and enhanced electrochemical properties of the Bi₂S₃/f-MWCNT nanocomposite. The as-prepared Bi₂S₃/f-MWCNT demonstrated exceptional sensing ca
