Alumina precursors were prepared via a sol-gel process by refluxing aqueous solutions containing urea and 0.4 M Al3+ (the [urea]/[Al3+] ratio was 3.0). The obtained precursor precipitates were dried in supercritical ethanol. The resultant gamma-alumina nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR). Hexagonal sheet gamma-alumina (gamma-Al2O3) nanoparticles with a diameter of 8.48 nm were successfully prepared. The electrocatalytic properties of the nano-gamma-alumina/carbon paste electrode for oxidation of alizarin in 1.0 M H2SO4 solution have been investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), and excellent electrocatalytic activity was observed.
通过溶胶 - 凝胶法制备氧化铝前驱体,方法是将含有尿素和0.4 M Al3 +([尿素]/[Al3 +]比例为3.0)的水溶液回流。所得前驱体沉淀在超临界乙醇中干燥。通过X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、场发射扫描电子显微镜(FE - SEM)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)和傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)对所得的γ - 氧化铝纳米颗粒进行表征。成功制备了直径为8.48 nm的六方片状γ - 氧化铝(γ - Al2O3)纳米颗粒。通过循环伏安法(CV)研究了纳米γ - 氧化铝/碳糊电极在1.0 M H2SO4溶液中对茜素氧化的电催化性能,并观察到了优异的电催化活性。
