Stripping Potentiometry of Lead,Cadmium and Copper at a Nafion Coated Glassy Carbon Electrode with Encapsulated Mercury Acetate |
| |
Abstract: | Abstract The stripping potentiometric determination of lead, cadmium and copper with mercury film glassy-carbon electrodes coated with a Nafion membrane was investigated. The mercury film was plated using either mercury(II) acetate encapsulated within the Nafion membrane or a mercury(II) solution. Dissolved dioxygen was used as the stripping agent. The electrodes showed promising properties, particularly robustness and response repeatability. A linear dependence of the stripping time on concentration was found in the μg l?1 concentration range (s.d. of intercept ≤ 0.3 μg l?1, r.s.d. of slope ≤ 1%, for both lead and cadmium). |
