Simultaneous reduction and surface functionalization of graphene oxide via an ionic liquid for electrochemical sensors

Abstract

A facile approach was developed to prepare well-dispersed ionic liquid functionalized graphene composites using 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium 2-amino-3-mercaptopropionic acid salt ionic liquid as a reducing reagent and functionalization reagent. The resulting material showed excellent electrochemical activity to catechol and hydroquinone.
