Interference among multiple heavy metal ions (HMIs) is a significant problem that must be solved in electroanalysis, which extremely restricts the practical popularization of electrochemical sensors. However, due to the limited exploration of the intrinsic mechanism, it is still difficult to confirm the influencing factors. In this work, a series of experimental and theoretical electroanalysis models have been established to investigate the electroanalysis results of Cu(II), Cd(II), As(III), and their mixtures, which were based on the simple structure and stable coordination of nickel single-atom catalysts. X-ray absorption spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations were used to reveal the underlying detection mechanism of the 50-fold boosting effect of Cu(II) on As(III) while Cd(II) inhibits As(III). Combining the application of the thermodynamic model and Fourier transform infrared reflection, the specific interaction of the nanomaterials and HMIs on the interface is considered to be the fundamental source of the interference. This work opens up a new way of thinking about utilizing the unique modes of interplay between nanomaterials and HMIs to achieve anti-interference intelligent electrodes in stripping analysis.
