A novel strategy is developed to synthesize three-dimensional porous Au@Pt core-shell nanoflowers supported on GO (Au@Pt-nFs/GO) for enhanced electrochemical sensing of hydrazine (N2H4). Au@Pt-nFs/GO nanocomposite was synthesized through a facile and green method, where ascorbic acid and chitosan were employed as the reductant and linking agent, respectively. The experiment results revealed that a large numbers of Au@Pt-nFs with Au cores and Pt dendritic shells were distributed on the surface of GO sheets. Meanwhile, Au@Pt-nFs/GO with large surface area, abundant active sites and open structure reduced the overpotential and accelerated kinetics of N2H4 oxidation, therefore making the sensor based on Au@Pt-nFs/GO exhibit an excellent performance for N2H4 analysis with a wide linear range of 0.8 mu M-0.429 mM, a high sensitivity of 1695.3 mu A mM(-1) cm(-2) and a low detection limit of 0.43 mu M (S/N = 3). Moreover, the sensor also exhibited good selectivity, repeatability and stability. Application of the sensor for the detection of N2H4 in tap water samples was demonstrated. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V.
