Abstract

A new technique for sensing nanomolar concentrations of hydrazine in water samples is reported. A screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) altered using an amine-azo functional group encompassing poly-(dicyandiamide) is used in this study. The modified electrode exhibits an enhanced activity toward hydrazine detection at a lower overpotential and broad linear scale between 20 nM and 1 mM, with an accurate sensitivity value of 0.1 nA mu m(-1) cm(-2). To the best of our knowledge, poly-(dicyandiamide)-modified electrodes exhibit one of the lowest limits of detection for any metal-free electrode that detects 6.7 nM (S/N = 3) of hydrazine. The method established sufficient selectivity and better recoveries. Finally, the poly-(dicyandiamide)-modified SPCE* is highly suitable for electrochemical determination of hydrazine in water samples from tap and lake.
