Abstract
Palladium (Pd)-based nanomaterials are the emerging class of catalysts with individual physiochemical properties. Unlike traditional catalysts, metallenes showed abundant active sites, large surface area, and high atomic utilization. Based on these benefits, we demonstrate a highly active 2D graphene-like Pd metallene with abundant accessible active sites serving as a highly efficient oxidase mimic. The structure and morphology of Pd metallenezymes were controlled to enhance the catalytic performance and to efficiently utilize all the Pd atoms. Pd metallenezymes with excellent oxidase-like activity were successfully applied for colorimetric-based chromium (VI) (Cr(VI)) detection in a real environment. 3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) was used as a typical chromogenic substrate catalyzed by Pd metallene to show that blue oxidized TMB (ox TMB) was significantly reduced to colorless TMB by the reducing agent 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ). The reaction process was impressively reversed by the addition of Cr(VI), which interacted with 8-HQ to restore the blue color of TMB. Based on the above results, a facile and effective colorimetric sensing system for the detection of Cr(VI) with a low detection limit of 2.8 nM was developed and could be successfully applied to the detection of Cr(VI) in a real environment.
