Potentiometric sensing of oxyanions such as arsenate over self-assembly engineered and chemically responsive molybdenum dioxide grafted polyaniline (PANI/MoO3) plated ITO glass electrode has been reported. FT-IR, XRD, SEM, EDX, STEM-mapping, Raman spectroscopy, and N2 adsorption-desorption measurements were used to determine the impact of molecular architecture on the structure, morphology, and physical characteristics of PANI/MoO3. The obtained result implies the synthesis of a porous hybrid nanostructured material with enhanced orientated crystallinity, enhanced adsorption capacity, and responsiveness because of an optimized molecular structure and crystallinity alignment. The limit of detection (LOD) for detecting As(V) ions by using PANI/MoO3 composite/ITO electrodes based on the differential pulse voltammetry technique (DPV) was found to be around 0.15 ppb. The interaction between arsenate and molybdate oxyanions led to the development of an induced potential, which helped to clarify the sensing mechanism, charge transfer, and shifting characteristics. For the on-site detection of residual arsenate in diverse environmental samples, the analytical performance of the produced electrode in a genuine sample was also investigated. |
