Fabrication and electrochemical study of monodisperse and size controlled Prussian blue nanoparticles protected by biocompatible polymer

Polymers/Composites Based Intelligent Transducers

“…Some authors used organic polymers as stabilizers for the synthesis of Prussian blue nanoparticles to be deposited onto the electrode surface due to their unique electrochromic, photophysical, and magnetic properties. The polymers used for these purposes were polyvinyl alcohol [2], chitosan [3], polyvinyl pyrrolidone [4][5], and poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) [6]. Using the electrodeposition method, polypoly(3, 4-ethylene dioxythiophene-sodium dodecyl sulfate) embedded with silver nanoparticles was deposited onto the electrode for electrochemical sensing ofNADH [7].…”

Electrochemical synthesis of nickel hexacyanoferrate nanoarrays with dots, rods and nanotubes morphology using a porous alumina template

“…Most previous studies on NiHCF as an electrode material were based on thin films on conducting and planar substrates prepared by several methods, such as chemical deposition from mixtures of divalent nickel and ferrocyanide salts, layer-by-layer method, cathodic deposition from marginally stable electrolytes containing divalent nickel and ferricyanide, and electrochemical oxidation of nickel in ferricyanide solutions [14][15][16][17]. The ability to considerably improve existing catalytic properties of MeHCF was elegantly demonstrated in a recent report using nanostructured MeHCF electrodes for hydrogen peroxide detection [18,19]. Therefore, nanostructuring and building of MeHCF in the form of nanoelectrode ensembles has been recognized as a promising strategy to considerably improve their properties and analytical performance [18][19][20][21][22].…”

Fabrication of arrays of nanotubular MeHCF (Prussian blue and NiHCF) has been demonstrated using AAO template synthesis based on electrokinetic method which combines electroosmotic force and electromigration of metal and hexacyanoferrate [23].…”

A New Material Based on Nanostructured Prussian Blue Analogue Film Doped with Ce(III) for Development of Hydrogen Peroxide Sensor

“…Thus, how to efficiently improve the electrochemical stability of PB film becomes desirable. To solve this problem, poly (vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) [18,19], chitosan (CS) [20], poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) [18,21,22], polyallylamine hydrochloride (PAH), polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) [23] have been used as stabilizers to synthesize the PB nanoparticles. Due to these protective polymers, the PB nanoparticles have been brought to some attractive novel properties, such as biocompatibility, solubility and filmforming properties.…”
