▎ 摘  要

A sample of nitrogen and boron co-doped graphene (NB-Gr) was obtained by the hydrothermal method using urea and boric acid as doping sources. According to XRD analysis, the NB-Gr sample was formed by five-layer graphene. In addition, the XPS analysis confirmed the nitrogen and boron co-doping of the graphene sample. After synthesis, the investigation of the electro-catalytic properties of the bare (GC) and graphene-modified electrode (NB-Gr/GC) towards cymoxanil detection (CYM) was performed. Significant differences between the two electrodes were noticed. In the first case (GC) the peak current modulus was small (1.12 x 10(-5) A) and appeared in the region of negative potentials (-0.9 V). In contrast, when NB-Gr was present on top of the GC electrode it promoted the transfer of electrons, leading to a large peak current increase (1.65 x 10(-5) A) and a positive shift of the peak potential (-0.75 V). The NB-Gr/GC electrode was also tested for its ability to detect cymoxanil from a commercial fungicide (CURZATE MANOX) by the standard addition method, giving a recovery of 99%.
