Özet

Environmental phenolic pollutants such as 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) require sensitive detection because of their persistence and toxicity. Herein, sonochemically synthesized NiMn(PO4)(2) (NMPO) micro-flakes were developed as an electrochemical interface for TCP determination. The hierarchical micro-flake morphology and synergistic Ni/Mn redox centers promote TCP adsorption, interfacial electron transfer, and electrocatalytic oxidation. Compared with bare GCE, NMPO/GCE exhibited a markedly enhanced TCP oxidation response and reduced charge-transfer resistance. Under optimized conditions, differential pulse voltammetry showed two linear ranges of 0.001-0.020 & micro;M and 0.5-12 & micro;M, with a detection limit of 0.7 nM. The sensor demonstrated good repeatability (RSD < 2%), reproducibility (RSD = 1.4%), operational stability (97.1% signal retention), and selectivity toward TCP over common interferents. Spiked human urine analysis gave recoveries of 94-104%, confirming practical applicability. These results highlight NMPO micro-flakes as a simple and reliable platform for ultrasensitive TCP monitoring.
