In this work, a novel electrochemical sensor using a carbon paste modified electrode with CuO doped
in ZSM-5 nanoparticles (CuO/ZSM-5 NPs/CPE) is successfully fabricated for simultaneous determination
of hydrazine (HY) and hydroxylamine (HA). The prepared materials are characterized with scanning
electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD),
energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) techniques. For sensitive determination
of HY and HA, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and amperometry techniques are used. Furthermore,
in amperometric measurements, the current response and the HY concentration have linear relationships
in the ranges of 25 mM to 0.9 mM and 0.9–4.5 mM. Also, there are linear relationships in the ranges of
20 mM to 0.9 mM and 0.9–7.0 mM for HA. Also, low detection limits of 3.6 mM and 3.2 mM (S/N = 3) are
achieved for HY and HA, respectively. The sensor has good stability, reproducibility and anti-interference
capability as well as simplicity.
