Heterojunction Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles (NPs), NiFe₂O₄ nanofibers (NFs), and CoFe₂O₄ NFs were synthesized by electrospinning and the subsequent thermal treatment processes. Characterization results indeed display the three-dimensional net-like textural structures of these as-electrospun spinel-type MFe₂O₄ NFs. The MFe₂O₄ NFs-based film configurations possess abundant micro/meso/macropores on their surface. These structures could afford more accessible transport channels for effective reduction of the mass transport resistance and improvement of the density of exposed catalytic active sites. All these advantages are responsible for the enhanced electro-catalytic performance of these MFe₂O₄ NFs in hydrazine oxidation. When used for hydrazine detection, CoFe₂O₄ NFs show the best catalytic efficiency. For example, the CoFe₂O₄ NFs possess a large sensitivity of 1327 μA cm^-2 (mmol L^-1)^-1 in the linear range of 0.01 to 0.1 mmol L^-1 and 503 μA cm^-2 (mmol L^-1) 1 in the linear range of 0.1 to 11 mmol L 1, a response time of shorter than 3 s, good reproducibility and remarkable long-term stability. The superior catalytic efficiency, excellent stability, low cost, and ease of fabrication render CoFe₂O₄ NFs very promising materials in developing an electrochemical device that directly detects hydrazine.
