Calcium ion selective membrane electrode

The calcium salts of the mono- and diesters of [4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenyl phosphoric acid] have been prepared, and the individual esters as well as mixtures of the esters have been used with several varieties of polyvinyl chloride to construct macro membrane electrodes selective to calcium ions. These electrodes have been calibrated by using solutions of CaCl₂ and Ca ion buffers. The mixed ester electrodes showed Nernstian response in the concentration range 10^-1 to 10^-7M; the diester electrodes showed Nernstian response down to 7.9 x 10^-8M. The detection limit of the mixed ester electrode was 10^-8M, whereas that of the diester electrode was 7.9 x 10^-9M. Contrary to these results, the monoester electrodes showed unsatisfactory behavior. The responses of both the mixed ester and diester electrodes to calcium ions were not affected by the presence of sodium, potassium, or other divalent ions. Only ferric and lanthanum ions showed interferences with the electrode response to calcium ions. p]The electrode response was independent of pH in the approximate range 5–8 at a CaCl₂ concentration of 10^-4M. As the Ca ion concentration was increased, the range of pH independence widened to approximately 4–8. The dynamic response time constant of the mixed ester electrode was in the range 0.7–1.5 sec, whereas that of the diester electrode was in the range 0.5–0.75 sec.
