Key Points

This research aims to develop a novel nanocomposite to enhance the detection and discrimination of dihydroxybenzene isomers.
Utilized a carbon black-supported nickel-iron hydroxide nanocomposite for electrochemical detection.
Conducted various electrochemical experiments to analyze redox responses of dihydroxybenzene isomers.
Employed differential pulse voltammetry for selective discrimination of catechol and hydroquinone.
Successfully achieved high selectivity in detecting catechol and hydroquinone with distinct electrochemical signals.
Demonstrated effective discrimination through significant differences in redox potentials during testing.
Achieved better sensitivity compared to conventional detection methods.

Implication

Investigates selective discrimination of dihydroxybenzene isomers, suggesting novel detection methods.

Abstract

Detection and simultaneous discrimination of dihydroxybenzene (DHB) isomers, particularly catechol (CT) and hydroquinone (HQ), remain challenging due to their closely similar electrochemical responses and partially overlapping redox potentials. These difficulties...
