Özet
© 2017 Elsevier Inc.A new electrocatalyst, Ti-HMS was successfully synthesized by sol-gel method employing Ti source tetrabutyl orthotitanate (TBOT) and silica source tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS, 99% purity). Ti-HMS catalysts were prepared at varying Ti:Si ratios by employing sol-gel method. Physicochemical properties of these nanoparticles were characterized and confirmed by BET, TG-DTA, XPS, and XRD. Electrochemical properties of Ti-HMS catalysts prepared at varying Ti:Si ratios were examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry (CA) for determination of the oxidation and reduction activity of H2O2. It was observed that the Ti-HMS (Ti:Si = 0.02) electrode exhibits significant oxidation and reduction of H2O2 at applied potentials of 0.65 V and −0.30 V with the addition of H2O2, respectively. The excellent electrocatalytic response to H2O2 is mainly attributed to varying electronic properties with the incorporation of Ti to HMS.
