▎ 摘　　要

It is time for electrodes prepared from graphene oxide (GO) to replace the traditional electrodes. However, GO is an electrically insulating material. However, in this study, a conductive electrode was prepared from GO modification with glycerol (GL) under the esterification reaction at 90 degrees C for 3 h with sulphuric acid as a catalyst under vacuum conditions. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) acts as a polymer host. It was mixed with GO and modification was carried out under heating conditions. The mixture of the GO/GL/PVA nanocomposite was rapidly cooled and poured into the electrode mould. Finally, it is placed in a desiccator at room temperature for two days. The characterisation (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy) proved that the ester bond was formed and a complete distribution of GO/GL into the matrix of PVA was verified. The GO/GL/PVA nanocomposite was tested for electrocardiogram (ECG) electrodes. The biopic instrument was used to compare the behaviour of the GO/GUPVA plastic electrode and the commercial one. The results indicated that the GO/GL/PVA plastic electrode efficiently detected ECG signals after two months with high conductivity and lower noise than the commercial electrode. The GO/GL/PVA plastic electrode has been reported for the first time in the literature.
