Abstract

Novel feather-like CeO₂ microstructures were achieved by a thermal decomposition approach of Ce(OH)CO₃ precursor. The Ce(OH)CO₃ was obtained from a solvothermal method employing Ce(NO₃)₃.6H₂O with C₆H $_{12}$ $_{12}$ N₄ and C $_{16}$ $_{16}$ H $_{33}$ $_{33}$ (CH₃)₃NBr (CTAB) at 190 $^{\circ}$ $^{\circ}$ C in a water–PEG-200 mixed solution. The feather-like CeO₂ dendrite was obtained by thermal conversion of the feather-like Ce(OH)CO₃ at 650 $^{\circ}$ $^{\circ}$ C in air. A reasonable growth mechanism was proposed with the soft-template effect of PEG-200. The electrochemical behavior and enzyme activity of myoglobin (Mb) immobilized on CeO₂–Nafion modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) are demonstrated by cyclic voltammetric measurements. The results indicate that CeO₂ can obviously promote the direct electron transfer between the Mb redox centers and the electrode. The Mb on CeO₂–Nafion behaves as an elegant performance on the electrochemical reduction of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) from 0.32 $μ$ $μ$ M to 2.28 $μ$ $μ$ M. The detection limit is estimated to be 0.08 $μ$ $μ$ M.
