Polydopamine modified polyaniline-graphene oxide composite for enhancement of corrosion resistance.

In this study, the composite of two-dimensional graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets and button-shaped polyaniline (PANI) was synthesized and further modified by polydopamine (PDA). The obtained PDA-PANI-GO composite was used to enhance the corrosion protection ability of nontoxic water-based alkyd varnish (WAV). The chemical composition, functional groups and surface morphologies of GO, PANI-GO and PDA-PANI-GO composites were characterized by XRD, FT-IR XPS and SEM.

Direct Electrochemical Vibrio DNA Sensing Adopting Highly Stable Graphene-Flavin Mononucleotide Aqueous Dispersion Modified Interface.

A biofunctionalized graphene nanohybrid was prepared by simultaneously sonicating graphene and riboflavin 5'-monophosphate sodium salt (FMNS). FMNS, as a biodispersant, showed an efficient stabilization for obtaining highly dispersed graphene nanosheets in an aqueous solution. Due to the superior dispersion of graphene and the excellent electrochemical redox activity of FMNS, a direct electrochemical DNA sensor was fabricated by adopting the inherent electrochemical redox activity of graphene-FMNS (Gr-FMNS).

Highly sensitive determination of chloramphenicol based on thin-layered MoS2/polyaniline nanocomposite.

The nanocomposite of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and polyaniline (PANI) was prepared through in situ polymerization of aniline on the surface and interlayer of thin-layered MoS2. Owing to the physisorption of aromatic aniline onto the basal plane of MoS2, the electrochemical properties of MoS2/PANI nanocomposite were improved. And a novel electrochemical sensor based on MoS2/PANI nanocomposite was used to determine chloramphenicol by differential pulse voltammetry, exhibiting excellent performance.

The effect of material composition of 3-dimensional graphene oxide and self-doped polyaniline nanocomposites on DNA analytical sensitivity.

Until now, morphology effects of 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional graphene nanocomposites and the effect of material composition on the biosensors have been rarely reported. In this paper, the various nanocomposites based on graphene oxide and self-doped polyaniline nanofibres for studying the effect of morphology and material composition on DNA sensitivity were directly reported. The isolation and dispersion of graphene oxide were realized via intercalated self-doped polyaniline and ultrasonication, where the ultrasonication prompts the aggregates of graphite oxide to break up and self-doped polyaniline to diffuse into the stacked graphene oxide.

Electrocatalytic activity of molybdenum disulfide nanosheets enhanced by self-doped polyaniline for highly sensitive and synergistic determination of adenine and guanine.

Recently, easy, green, and low-cost liquild exfoliation of bulk materials to obtain thin-layered nanostructure significantly emerged. In this work, thin-layered molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets were fabricated through intercalation of self-doped polyaniline (SPAN) to layer space of bulk MoS2 by ultrasonic exfoliating method to effectively prevent reaggregation of MoS2 nanosheets. The obtained hybrid showed specific surface area, a large number of electroactive species, and open accessible space, accompanied by rich negative charged and special conjugated structure, which was applied to adopt positively charged guanine and adenine, based on their strong π-π* interactions and electrostatic adsorption.
