In this study, the synthesis and application of rare earth tungstates Ce4W9O33 (CeW), Sm2(WO4)3 (SmW), and Gd2(WO4)3 (GdW) for the electrochemical detection of 4-nitrotoluene were investigated. The nanoparticles were synthesized using a deep eutectic solvent (DES)-assisted solvothermal method, a tec...
