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. ...

Conventional ion-selective electrodes with a liquid junction have the disadvantage of potential drift. All-solid-state ion-selective electrodes with solid contact in between the metal electrode and the ion-selective membrane offer high capacitance or conductance to enhance potential stability. Solution-casted chitosan/Prussian blue nanocomposite (ChPBN) was employed as the solid contact layer f...

A plastic membrane electrode for the determination of methacycline hydrochloride was fabricated based on the use of methacycline-tetraphenylborate as the electroactive substance, and dioctylphtalate as the plasticizing agent. It was found that the potential responses of the electrode were influenced by pH of the tested solution when pH>3. Under the condition of pH 2.6, the linear response range...

Ionic liquids exhibit a remarkably diverse interfacial chemistry. Recent theoretical and experimental results show that conventional double layers do not form on metal electrodes in ionic liquid systems, rather a multilayer morphology is present. The number of layers and the strength of adsorption are strongly dependent on ionic liquid chemical species, solutes and applied electrode potential. ...

A two-dimensional along-the-channel CFD (computational fluid dynamic) model, coupled with a twophase flow model of liquid water and gas transport for a PEM (proton exchange membrane) fuel cell is described. The model considers non-isothermal operation and thus the non-uniform temperature distribution in the cell structure. Water phase-transfer between the vapour, liquid water and dissolved phas...

Liquid membrane processes have attracted many interests in recent years for removal of heavy metals such as cadmium from industrial wastewaters. In this study, a modified hybrid liquid membrane system is introduced. The setup is worked by applying the water-insoluble dioctyl phthalate as the organic solvent. N-octanol and tetra butyl ammonium bromide are added to the organic phase to increase t...
