Highly efficient Ag doped δ-MnO₂ decorated graphene: Comparison and application in electrochemical detection of H₂O₂.

ABSTRACT: Cytotoxic H₂O₂ is an inevitable part of our life, even during this contemporary pandemic COVID-19. Personal protective equipment of the front line fighter against coronavirus could be sterilized easily by H₂O₂ for reuse. In this study, Ag doped δ-MnO₂ nanorods supported graphene nanocomposite (denoted as Ag@δ-MnO₂/G) was synthesized as a nonenzymatic electrochemical sensor for the sensitive detection of H₂O₂. The ternary nanocomposite has overcome the poor electrical conductivity of δ-MnO₂ and also the severe aggregation of Ag NPs. Furthermore, δ-MnO₂/G provided a rougher surface and large numbers of functional groups for doping more numbers of Ag atoms, which effectively modulate
