Detection of Cd(2+) based on Nano-Fe(3)O(4)/MoS(2)/Nafion/GCE sensor.

It is necessary to detect cadmium ions in seawater with high sensitivity because the pollution of cadmium ions seriously endangers the health and life of human beings. Nano-Fe(3)O(4)/MoS(2)/Nafion modified glassy carbon electrode was prepared by a drop coating method. The electrocatalytic properties of Nano-Fe(3)O(4)/MoS(2)/Nafion were measured by Cyclic Voltammetry (CV). Differential Pulse Voltammetry (DPV) was used to study the stripping Voltammetry response of the modified electrode to Cd(2+). The optimal conditions were determined: In 0.1 mol/L HAc-NaAc solution, the solution pH was 4.2, the deposition potential was - 1.0 V, and the deposition time was 720 s, the membrane thickness was 8 μL. Under the optimum condition, the linear relation of Cd(2+) concentration was found in the range of 5-300 μg/L, and the detection limit was 0.053 μg/L. The recovery of Cd(2+) in seawater ranged from 99.2 to 102.9%. A composite material with simple operation, rapid response and high sensitivity was constructed for the determination of Cd(2+) in seawater.
