Triton X

The effect of electroreduction of Zn(II), Cd(II), Pb(II) and Cu(II) ions on the stability of a film of the surfactant Triton X-100 on the surface of hanging mercury drop electrode was investigated. A procedure is suggested to disturb the film in order to facilitate the determination of the above metal ions by anodic stripping voltammetry with accumulation.

Unstirred Solution

Optimum conditions were found for the determination of 4-nitrobiphenyl by fast scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in the concentration range 1 . 10-5 to 2 . 10-7 mol l-1. A further increase in sensitivity was attained by adsorptive accumulation of this substance on the surface of the working electrode, permitting determination in the concentration range (2 – 10) . 10-8 mol l-1 with one minute accumulation of the substance in unstirred solution or (2 – 10) . 10-9 mol l-1 with three-minute accumulation in stirred solution. Linear scan voltammetry can be used to determine 4-nitrobiphenyl in the concentration range (2 – 10) . 10-9 mol l-1 with five-minute accumulation in stirred solution, with the advantage of a smoother baseline and smaller interference from substances that yield only tensametric peaks.

Trace Metal Detection

The widely spread use of the hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) for multi-ion analysis is primarily ascribed to the following reasons: (i) excellent reproducibility owing to the easy renewal of the electrode surface avoiding any hysteresis effect (i.e., a new identical drop is generated for each measurement to be accomplished); (ii) a wide cathodic potential window originating from the passive hydrogen evolution and solvent electrolysis; (iii) the ability to form amalgams with many redox-active metal ions; and (iv) the achievement of (sub)nanomolar limits of detection. On the other hand, the main controversy of the HMDE usage is the high toxicity level of mercury, which has motivated the scientific community to question whether the HMDE deserves to continue being used despite its unique capability for multi-metal detection. In this work, the simultaneous determination of Zn2+, Cd2+, Pb2+, and Cu2+ using the HMDE is investigated as a model system to evaluate the main features of the technique. The analytical benefits of the HMDE in terms of linear range of response, reproducibility, limit of detection, proximity to ideal redox behavior of metal ions and analysis time are herein demonstrated and compared to other electrodes proposed in the literature as less-toxic alternatives to the HMDE. The results have revealed that the HMDE is largely superior to other reported methods in several aspects and, moreover, it displays excellent accuracy when simultaneously analyzing Zn2+, Cd2+, Pb2+, and Cu2+ in such a complex matrix as digested soils. Yet, more efforts are required towards the definitive replacement of the HMDE in the electroanalysis field, despite the elegant approaches already reported in the literature.
