Novel PDPA-SiO2 nanosphericals network decorated graphene nanosheets composite coated FTO electrode for efficient electro-oxidation of methanol

In this study, a facile two-step wet chemical approach was adopted to fabricate a novel polydiphenylamine (PDPA)/SiO2 nanosphericals decorated reduced graphene (GR) nanosheets composite material based modified fluorine-doped tin oxide electrode (FTO/GR-PDPA-SiO2) for the efficient electro-oxidation of methanol. GR based PDPA nanohybrid (GR-PDPA) and GR-PDPA-SiO2 were synthesized using in situ chemical oxidative polymerization technique. The...
