In order to study the Cu(II) ion selective electrode, an optimized membrane was prepared by mixing of 30 mg of PVC powdered, 5 mg of considered ionophore, 60 mg of plasticizer and 5 mg of additive. The sensor showed a near Nernstian response for Cu(II) ions over a concentration range from 1.0×0-6 –1.0×0-2 M with a slope of 28.90.5 mV per concentration decade with a working pH range of 3.5-6.3. ...

Nowadays metal-organic frameworks with multiple luminescent centers are very fascinating as multifunctional luminescent material because of their luminescence properties, which could be systematically tuned by deliberate use of organic ligands and metal ions. In this research, we explored a microporous mixed-ligand MOF for highly selective and sensitive detection of metal ions. A two-fold inter...

A PVC membrane Ni(II) ion selective electrode has been constructed using (1E,2E)-bis(2-aminophenyl)N'1,N'2-dihydroxyethanebis as membrane carrier. The electrode exhibited a goodpotentiometric response for Ni(II) over a wide concentration range 1.0×10-4 to 1.0×10-1M with aslope of 29.4±0.5 mV/decade a and a working pH range of 6.5-9.0. It had a fast response time of≤20s. The best performance was...

A PVC ion-selective membrane electrode based on Cd-tetraphenyl porphyrine as a carrier was prepared fordetermination of MnO4- ion. This electrode revealed good selectivity toward permanganate ion over a widevariety of anions. Effects of some experimental parameters such as nature of the plasticizer, the amounts ofcarrier and additive, and concentration of the internal solution on the potential ...

tin(ii)-ion-selective electrode consisting of dibenzo-18-crown-6 (db18c6) as an ionophore inpvc matrix was developed. the influences of membrane composition, selectivity, response time,reversibility and temperature on the electrode performance were investigated. the electrodeshowed a near nernstian response for sn2+ ions over a concentration range from 1.0× 10-6 – 1.0× 10-2 m with a slope of 27...

Investigation of some reaction products possibly produced by electrolyzing with Au and Pd electrodes in Na2SO4, K2CO3, and KOH light water solutions was made. The electrolysis was performed for 7 days with a constant current of 1 A. After the electrolysis the elements accumulated in the electrode were analyzed by means of AES. In every case a notable amount of Fe atoms were detected together wi...

In this work, four different supercapacitive microbial fuel cells (SC-MFCs) with carbon brush as the anode and an air-breathing cathode with Fe-Aminoantipyrine (Fe-AAPyr) as the catalyst have been investigated using galvanostatic discharges. The maximum power (Pmax) obtained was in the range from 1.7 mW to 1.9 mW for each SC-MFC. This in-series connection of four SC-MFCs almost quadrupled Pmax ...

Covalent grafting of chromotropic acid (CA) moiety to a glassy carbon electrode was performed by electrochemical reduction of the corresponding diazonium cation generated in situ. Grafted electrodes were subjected to the electrochemical detection of multivalent cations using Fe(CN)(6)(3-/4-) as an electrochemical probe molecule. In the absence of metal cations, redox reaction of the anionic p...
