The technology of 3D printing has emerged as a potent tool for the preparation of 3D-printed electrode. Using commercial graphene/polylactic acid (PLA) composite filaments as printed materials, fused deposition modeling as 3D-printed technique, 3D printed electrodes (3DEs) were created in this work. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and the composites of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) were used to modify the activated 3DEs for constructing a novel electrode (SACP@Au@3DE), and in this work chlorogenic acid (CGA) was regarded as a probe for testing the performance of SACP@Au@3DE. The surface physicochemical properties of the prepared 3DEs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The electrochemical properties of the prepared 3DEs were investigated using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods. The constructed SACP@Au@3DE can be used to determine CGA at concentrations ranging from 10 to 400 μM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 4.13 μM. Ultimately, the SACP@Au@3DE sensor was used for CGA detection in coffee powder sample to explore the potential for real sample analysis. This work opens the novel avenue of using conductive polymer modified 3D-printed electrode in the field of sensor.
