| In this paper, the synthesis and electrochemical properties towards NO of theelectrodes modified with nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (CNxNTs) and theircomposites were studied. This work provides theoretical basis for the synthesis of theCNxNTs-based composites and the fabrication of electrochemical sensors for NOdetection in biomedicine and ecological environment. This thesis includes thefollowing three parts:(1) CNxNTs were synthesized by pyrolysis of pyridine and foam ironphthalocyanine at different temperatures and different NH3flow rates. The influence ofthe synthesis conditions to the nitrogen content of CNxNTs were studied. And theelectrochemical properties towards NO of the electrodes modified with the products ofCNxNTs were investigated.(2) CNxNTs were synthesized by pyrolysis of the feedstock of pyridine,propylamine and ethylene diamine. The high-efficiency catalyst of CoxMg1-xMoO4were used to increase the yield of the CNxNTs products. The influence of the differentfeedstock to the quality ratio of the CNxNTs products and the catalyst was studied. Andthen, the CNxNTs products were directly decorated with FeNi alloy and Ptnanoparticles without any acid treatment. In this way, the feasibility of the CNxNTscould be directly decorated with other materials were confirmed.(3) The composites of CeO2/CNxNTs and SnO2/CNxNTs were prepared. Thecomposites were characterized in detail and the mechanism of the composite processwas analysed. And the electrochemical properties towards NO of the electrodesmodified with the products of the CNxNTs composites were investigated. |
