- Abstract
Electrochemical properties of a carbon paste electrode (graphite) modified with hazelnut and walnut shells were investigated. The adsorption of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) on the studied materials was determined, and the hazelnut shells were found to provide a higher adsorption capacity. The hazelnut and walnut shells were used to modify the carbon paste electrode to detect 4-CP by cyclic voltammetry. Compared to an unmodified electrode, all of the new paste electrodes showed much higher sensitivity in the 4-CP detection.
