A stannum-bismuth composite film electrode for simultaneous determination of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) using differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry

The development and use of 'green' electrode materials is extremely attractive for the routine use of disposable metal sensors. Bismuth is an environmentally-friendly element and a bismuth film electrode was proposed as an alternative to mercury film electrodes. Compared with bismuth, stannum is a more 'environmentally friendly' material. The stannum-bismuth composite film electrode prepared by the in situ electrodeposition of stannum and bismuth on the glassy carbon substrate is reported for the first time. Compared with bismuth film and stannum film electrodes, the stannum-bismuth composite film electrode revealed better electroanalytical performance, and can be used as a possible alternative electrode for electrochemical stripping analysis of trace heavy metals.     

Determination of Lead(II) Using Screen‐Printed Bismuth‐Antimony Film Electrode

This work presents a disposable bismuth‐antimony film electrode fabricated on screen‐printed electrode (SPE) substrates for lead(II) determination. This bismuth‐antimony film screen‐printed electrode (Bi‐SbSPE) is simply prepared by simultaneously in situ depositing bismuth(III) and antimony(III) with analytes on the homemade SPE. The Bi‐SbSPE can provide an enhanced electrochemical stripping signal for lead(II) compared to bismuth film screen‐printed electrodes (BiSPE), antimony film screen‐printed electrodes (SbSPE) and bismuth‐antimony film glassy carbon electrodes (Bi‐SbGC). Under optimized conditions, the Bi‐SbSPE exhibits attractive linear responses towards lead(II) with a detection limit of 0.07 µg/L. The Bi‐SbSPE has been demonstrated successfully to detect lead in river water sample.     

Disposable Bismuth Oxide Screen Printed Electrodes for the High Throughput Screening of Heavy Metals

We present a simplified approach for the trace screening of toxic heavy metals utilizing bismuth oxide screen printed electrodes. The use of bismuth oxide instead of toxic mercury films facilitates the reliable sensing of lead(II), cadmium(II) and zinc(II). A linear range over 5 to 150 μg L^?1 with detection limits of 2.5 and 5 μg L^?1 are readily observed for cadmium and lead in 0.1 M HCl, respectively. Conducting a simultaneous multi‐elemental voltammetric detection of zinc, cadmium and lead in a higher pH medium (0.1 M sodium acetate solution) exhibited a linear range between 10 and 150 μg L^?1 with detection limits of 5, 10 and 30 μg L^?1 for cadmium, lead and zinc respectively. The sensor is greatly simplified over those recently reported such as bismuth nanoparticle modified electrodes and bismuth film coated screen printed electrodes. The scope of applications of this sensor with the inherent advances in electroanalysis coupled with the negliable toxicity of bismuth is extensive allowing high throughput electroanalysis.     

Sensitive stripping voltammetry of heavy metals by using a composite sensor based on a built-in bismuth precursor

A new graphite-epoxy composite electrode (GECE) containing Bi(NO(3))(3) as a built-in bismuth precursor for simultaneous and individual anodic stripping analysis of heavy trace metals like lead and cadmium is reported. The developed Bi(NO(3))(3)-GECE is compatible with bismuth film electrodes reported previously including the composite electrodes (Bi-GECE) recently reported by our group. Bi(NO(3))(3)-GECE displays the ability for the detection of both individual and simultaneous determination of heavy trace metals and exhibits well defined, reproducible and sharp stripping signals. The sensitive response is combined with the minimal toxicity of Bi(NO(3))(3). This novel sensor would be an appropriate alternative tool to sensors using bismuth in solution during their utilization in environmental quality monitoring as well as other applications.     

Novel disposable bismuth-sputtered electrodes for the determination of trace metals by stripping voltammetry

This work describes a novel type of bismuth electrode for stripping voltammetry based on coating a silicon substrate with a thin bismuth film by means of sputtering. The bismuth-based sensors were characterized by optical methods (scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD)) and as well as by linear sweep voltammetry. Subsequently, the electrodes were tested for the detection of low concentrations of trace metals (Cd(II), Pb(II) and Ni(II)) by stripping voltammetry. Well-formed stripping peaks were observed for trace concentrations of the target analytes demonstrating “proof-of-principle” for these sensors. This type of electrochemical device, utilizing thin-film technology for the formation of the bismuth film, holds promise for future applications in trace metal analysis.     

Characterization and Applications of a Bismuth Bulk Electrode

A bismuth bulk electrode (BiBE), a new solid‐state electrode, is presented. The polycrystalline metal bismuth disk‐shaped electrode was examined for its anodic stripping voltammetry performance, which was found to be well comparable to that achieved with the bismuth or mercury film electrodes. Useful potential windows of the BiBE in aqueous solutions of pH 1 to 13 were found to range from approximately ?1.7 to ?0.1 V, depending on pH, where either hydrogen evolution or anodic dissolution of metallic bismuth limit the electrochemical inertness of the BiBE. Employing cyclic voltammetry (CV), the cathodic behavior of the BiBE was examined by testing inorganic (cadmium(II) ions) and organic (2‐nitrophenol) model compounds; a CV quasi‐reversible behavior was recorded in the case of the Cd(II)‐Cd(0) couple. The characteristics of the BiBE under anodic conditions, i.e., at bismuth surface coated with a thin conductive Bi₂O₃ film, was examined by testing two well‐established redox systems, potassium hexacyanoferate(III) and ruthenium(III) hexaaminechloride; a nearly reversible behavior was recorded in the latter case. Based on the presented preliminary results, BiBE can be considered as an interesting alternative to common solid and (toxic) mercury electrodes for possible use in electrochemical studies and electroanalytical applications.     

Metal film electrodes prepared with a reversibly deposited mediator in voltammetric analysis of metal ions

Electrochemical stripping analysis is recognized as a powerful technique for trace metals owing its remarkable sensitivity, relatively inexpensive instrumentation, ability for multielement determination and capable of determining elements accurately at trace and ultra-trace levels. The success of voltammetric sensing procedure depends mainly on the proper choice and preparation of the working electrode. The article reviews the development and application of metal film electrodes (bismuth, lead, and antimony film electrodes) prepared with a reversibly deposited mediator for stripping voltammetric determination of metal ions (Ni(II), Sn(IV), Hg(II), U(VI), Cd(II), Pb(II), and Cr(VI)). In this electrochemical, defect-mediated, thin-film growth method, the mediator is periodically deposited and the stripped from the surface, and this serves to significantly increase the density of islands of atoms of interest metal, what in consequence improves the electrochemical properties of these electrodes, because of the increase in the active surface area of electrode.     

The Influence of the Electrodeposition Conditions on the Electroanalytical Performance of the Bismuth Film Electrode for Lead Determination

The bismuth film is a great promise as a suitable material to replace the mercury electrodes due to its low toxicity and good cathodic potential range. This work studies the influence of the electrodeposition conditions in the morphology and electroanalytical performance of the bismuth film electrodeposited onto copper electrode. The bismuth films were obtained in nitric or hydrochloric acid solutions with and without the presence of sodium citrate. The films were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE‐SEM) and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X‐ray spectrometry (SEM‐EDX). The microscopic analysis of the bismuth film obtained in HCl solution with sodium citrate (BIFE‐Cit) showed more homogeneous structure with higher content of bismuth than the film obtained in HCl only (BiFE‐HCl). The BiFE‐Cit exhibited a better analytical performance for lead with good adherence to the copper substrate.     

Influence of Nafion Coatings and Surfactant on the Stripping Voltammetry of Heavy Metals at Bismuth‐Film Modified Carbon Film Electrodes

Nafion polymer coated bismuth‐film‐modified carbon film electrodes have been investigated for reducing the influence of contaminants such as surfactants in the anodic stripping voltammetry of trace metal ions. The influence of the coating on electrode response has been tested with both ex situ and in situ bismuth film deposition, with and without the polymer coating. The electrode assemblies and interfacial characteristics in the presence of the non‐ionic surfactant Triton‐X‐100 have been probed with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The Nafion coating successfully decreases the adsorption of Triton on the bismuth film surface, and demonstrates that this strategy allows measurement of these trace metals in environmental samples containing surfactants.     

Bismuth Film Voltammetric Sensor on Pyrolyzed Photoresist/Alumina Support for Determination of Heavy Metals

Voltammetric sensors based on bismuth film electrodes are an attractive alternative to other sensors for application in electroanalysis of heavy metals. Bismuth film electrodes can be formed by a similar method on the same substrates as mercury. These systems were used most frequently for simultaneous determination of heavy metals such as Pb, Cd and Zn by anodic stripping voltammetry. Our voltammetric sensor was fabricated on an alumina substrate. A photoresist film prepared by pyrolysis of positive photoresist S‐1813 SP15 on the alumina substrate was used as an electrode support for bismuth film deposition. The influence of the Nafion membrane on the measurement sensitivity of the sensor and mechanical stability of the bismuth film were investigated. The sensor was successfully applied for determination of Pb, Cd and Zn in an aqueous solution in the concentration range of 0.2 to 10 µg L^?1 by square wave anodic stripping voltammetry on an in‐situ formed bismuth film electrode with Nafion‐coating. Parameters of the sensor such as sensitivity, linearity, detection limit, repeatability and life‐time were evaluated. In the best case, the detection limits were estimated as 0.07, 0.11 and 0.63 µg L^?1 for Pb, Cd and Zn, respectively. Finally, the applicability of the sensor was tested in analysis of Pb, Cd and Zn in real samples of tap and river water using the method of standard additions.
