Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of nano materials, in particular to nano porous gold, a preparation method thereof and an electrochemical analysis sensor.
Background
The electrochemical analysis sensor is the most core and reliable technology of the quantitative analysis detection technology at present, and has a very prominent position. The method mainly utilizes the electrochemical oxidation reaction of a compound on a noble metal electrode to generate an oxidation current, and the intensity of the current is directly related to the concentration of the compound, so that a concentration value is obtained by utilizing the intensity of the current. Noble metal electrodes play an important role in electrochemical analysis techniques because they act as electrochemical catalysts to accelerate electron transfer and reduce reaction activation energy. For many years, researchers have been working on developing electrochemical catalysts with high catalytic activity, such as increasing specific surface area, electrochemically active sites, or regulating mass transfer diffusion of reactants at an electrode-electrolyte interface.
Compared with electrochemical catalysts of noble metals, porous metal materials with three-dimensional staggered network structures have attracted much attention in electrochemical analysis techniques due to their unique properties. The porous metal material has a better catalytic structure, and the staggered net structure can effectively promote mass transfer and diffusion of reactants; and the net-shaped internal height curve structure can expose multiple crystal faces, thereby providing diversified electrochemical active sites. Therefore, the unique properties of the porous metal material provide potential application values for the porous metal material in the fields of electrocatalysis and electroanalysis.
At present, diversified technical means are applied to the construction of porous metal materials, such as an alloy removing method, an electrochemical deposition method, a template synthesis method and the like. The dealloying method is widely applied, and a binary or ternary alloy consisting of noble metal and active metal is usually used as an initial reactant, and the active metal is dissolved in multiple steps under the strong acid or strong alkaline condition, so that a porous structure of the noble metal is formed. However, this method is usually harsh, needs strong acid and strong alkali conditions, lacks certain controllability in the construction of the ordered porous structure, and the electrochemical catalytic activity of the obtained porous metal material is also not high.

(3) adding 1.022g of zinc chloride into 5mL of organic solvent (benzyl alcohol, polyethylene glycol 600, glycerol and ethylene glycol) and completely dissolving by ultrasonic wave to obtain a transparent and clear zinc chloride solution; polishing the zinc sheet and the zinc wire to be bright respectively to remove an oxide film on the surface, soaking in ethanol, and ultrasonically cleaning for 5min to obtain the zinc sheet and the zinc wire after cleaning and impurity removal; heating a zinc chloride solution to 110 ℃, then using the bare gold electrode subjected to activation treatment in the step (2) as a working electrode, using a zinc wire as a counter electrode, using a zinc sheet as a reference electrode, placing the three electrodes in the zinc chloride solution, connecting the three electrodes to an electrochemical workstation, circularly scanning under the conditions of an initial voltage of 0.2V, a lowest voltage of-0.8V, a highest voltage of 1.8V and a scanning rate of 10mV/s, taking out the working electrode after circularly scanning for 20 times, and washing the working electrode with absolute ethyl alcohol to obtain the nano-porous gold.

FIG. 10 is a cyclic voltammogram of nanoporous gold prepared in different organic solvents of test example 1 as an electrode in 0.1M sulfuric acid. Referring to FIG. 10, the characteristic reduction peak of the MOS is mostly concentrated at + 0.89V. Moreover, after electrochemical treatment of a zinc chloride glycol solution, the characteristic reduction peak of the metal oxide is the largest; after electrochemical treatment by a zinc chloride polyethylene glycol solution, the characteristic reduction peak of the metal oxide is minimum. Integrating the characteristic reduction peaks of the nanoporous gold prepared by electrochemical treatment under different organic solvent conditions, and calculating the electrochemical active area and the roughness of the nanoporous gold compared with a bare gold electrode, so as to obtain that the electrochemical active areas of the nanoporous gold are respectively 11.68mm under the conditions of benzyl alcohol, polyethylene glycol 600, glycerol and glycol solution2、7.01mm2、13.66mm2And 34.88mm2The roughness corresponds to 13.65, 8.19, 15.61 and 40.74, respectively. The results show that the nanoporous gold prepared using ethylene glycol as solvent has the highest electrochemical active area and the largest roughness under the same number of scans.
Test example 2
The nanoporous gold or bare gold electrodes (after activation treatment) prepared in example 1 were used as working electrodes for electrochemical analysis and testing, and a three-electrode test system was composed of Ag/AgCl as a reference electrode and a platinum wire as a counter electrode, 0.1M phosphate buffer (pH 7.2) as an electrolyte, and Nitric Oxide (NO) as a life information molecule to be analyzed.
Before testing, introducing inert argon into the electrolyte for 20min to remove dissolved oxygen, taking cyclic voltammetry as an analysis method, circularly scanning a substrate solution (blank sample) under the conditions that the initial voltage is 0.2V, the termination voltage is 0.8V and the scanning rate is 20mV/s, and recording the electrochemical behavior; then, NO solution was added to the electrolyte and stirred uniformly to obtain a test solution, the concentration was controlled to 5 μ M, the test solution (NO sample) was cyclically scanned again under the same conditions by cyclic voltammetry, and the electrochemical behavior was recorded, the result being shown in fig. 11. Fig. 11 is a graph of cyclic voltammetry response of the nanoporous gold and bare gold electrodes prepared in example 1 of the present invention as an electrode to nitric oxide, and referring to fig. 11, it can be seen that the nanoporous gold prepared in example 1 shows a strong electrochemical oxidation behavior for NO at + 0.75V. Compared with a bare gold electrode with a smooth surface as an electrode, when the nano-porous gold is used as the electrode, the electrochemical response to NO is improved by 6.3 times, and the oxidation potential is lower than that of the bare gold electrode (+0.84V), which shows that NO is easier to generate oxidation reaction on the surface of the nano-porous gold and has higher electrocatalytic activity.
