PANI/PbS core-shell nano/microcomposite membrane electrode supported on ITO glass (Aldrich, 20 Ω) was prepared using the optimized optical analyses and applied for the photoelectrochemical H2 generation. 3% of the nano/microcomposite (II) was mixed with 3% Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) (Middle-east company, Egypt, 99.5%) and 3% polyvinyl chloride (PVC) (Middle-east company, Egypt, 99.5%). All the components were mixed well and dissolved in minimum volume of Tetrahydrofuran (THF) (Middle-east company, Egypt, 99.5%). The resulting mixture was transferred into a Petri dish of 5 cm diameter. The total weight of constituents in each batch was fixed at 0.35 g. The Petri dish was then covered with a filter paper and left to dry in air. To obtain a uniform electrode thickness, the amount of THF was kept constant, and its evaporation was fixed for 24 h. The thickness of the electrode is ~0.2 mm. 10 mm diameter disk was cut out from the prepared electrode and glued to one side of ITO glass slide using Ag-THF paste.
Ito glass
Manufactured by Merck Group
ITO glass is a transparent conductive material consisting of a thin layer of indium tin oxide (ITO) deposited on a glass substrate. It is a key component in various electronic and optoelectronic devices due to its combination of optical transparency and electrical conductivity.

The spherulitic Cu–CuO nanostructures were prepared by a modified protocol as developed by Song et al.21 (link) Toluene and water were used as the medium here. Typically, 10 mL of a 20 mM solution of copper acetate aged for 1 day was mixed with 10 mL of a 30–50 mM solution of CTAB in toluene under stirring conditions. The solution was then transferred to a 250 mL glass beaker, and 80 mL of distilled water was added followed by 10 mL of NaBH4 solution. The resulting mixture was stirred for 20 minutes at room temperature. The solution was then placed in an air oven and aged at 65°C for 3 days. Upon aging, the color of the solution changes from yellow to brownish, indicating the formation of CuO. The product obtained was treated with deionized water, and repeatedly centrifuged and washed with water and ethanol. Finally, the product was dried in a vacuum oven at 45°C overnight.
ITO glass (<20 ohm/sq) procured from Aldrich (Gyeonggi do, Korea) was used as the base electrode. The ITO glass was cut into dimension of 5 mm (width) and 20 mm (length). The working area of the ITO glass for the electrochemical tests was controlled to 0.25 cm2.

The synthetic procedure has been successfully used in our previous studies. The surface of an ITO electrode was sequentially cleaned by using isopropanol, acetone, and distilled water before polymerization [41 (link),42 (link)]. Electrically conductive polymer films were assembled (polymerized) on ITO glass (Merck, 1 × 1 cm2). Aniline (ANI) and m-aminobenzenesulfonic acid (MSAN) in mole ratios from 20–80% were dissolved in DI water, keeping the total amino group concentration at 57 mM. To make imprinted films, testosterone, employed as the template and target molecule in this study, was included at concentrations up to 100 μg/mL. Initiator/oxidant (APS, 0.5% (w/w)) was then added to the ANI/MSAN mixture, and polymerization proceeded by immersion of the ITO electrode in the monomer mixture at 25 °C. The APS acts as an oxidant resulting in copolymerization to form electron-conducting poly(aniline-co-metanilic acid) from the aqueous mixture of ANI and MSAN [38 (link)]. Finally, ethanol solution (5% v/v) was employed for the removal of target molecules.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
