Poly-o-anisidine Sn(IV) arsenophosphate is a newly synthesized nanocomposite material and has been characterized on the basis of its chemical composition, ion exchange capacity, TGA-DTA, FTIR, X-RAY, SEM, and TEM studies. On the basis of distribution studies, the exchanger was found to be highly selective for lead that is an environmental pollutant. For the detection of lead in water a heterogeneous precipitate based ion-selective membrane electrode was developed by means of this composite cation exchanger as electroactive material. The membrane electrode is mechanically stable, with a quick response time, and can be operated over a wide pH range. The selectivity coefficients were determined by mixed solution method and revealed that the electrode is sensitive for Pb(II) in presence of interfering cations. The practical utility of this membrane electrode has been established by employing it as an indicator electrode in the potentiometric titration of Pb(II).

A PVC membrane sensor for Ag (I) ions has been prepared. The membrane has 5, 11, 17, 23-tetra-tert-butyl-25-(3-N, N-diethyldithio carbamoylpropoxy)-26,27,28-tris-propoxy calix[4]arene (CAD) as a carrier. It was found that the sensor exhibits a Nernstian response for Ag+ ions over a wide concentration range (10−2–10−6 M). Additionally, it illustrates a fast response time (about 5 seconds), and it can be used for at least 2 months without any considerable divergence in potentials. The nature of the plasticizer, the additive, the concentration of internal solutions in the electrodes, and the composition of the membrane were investigated. Furthermore, the suggested membrane electrode revealed good selectivities for Ag+ over a variety of other metal cations, and it could be used in the pH range of 3.0–7.0. Eventually, it was successfully applied as an indicator electrode for the potentiometric titration of Ag+ ion with NaCl.

Cerium(III)-selective membrane electrodes have been prepared using dibenzo-24-crown-8 (DB24C8) as an electroactive material. A membrane having a composition: DB24C8 (4.5%), plasticizer (NPOE, 62.5%) and PVC (33%) gives the best performance. It works well over a wide Ce(III) ion-concentration range of 1x10-5M to 1x10-1M with a Nernstian slope of 19.0 mV/decade and a detection limit of 3x10-5M. It has a fast response time of 20 seconds and has an average lifetime of four months. The internal solution concentration does not have a significant effect on the response of the electrode except for a change in intercept of the calibration curves. The working pH range for Ce(III) solutions (1x10-2M and 1x10-3M) is 3.5-8.0. The proposed sensor shows a good selectivity for cerium(III) with respect to alkali, alkaline earth, some transition and rare earth metal ions that are normally present along with cerium in its ores. The proposed sensor was investigated in partially non-aqueous media using acetone, methanol and DMSO mixtures with water. The electrode was further used as an indicator electrode for the potentiometric titration of Ce(III) solution against oxalic acid solution.

AbstractAn organic-inorganic composite, poly-o-anisidine Sn(IV) phosphate, was chemically synthesized by mixing ortho-anisidine into gels of Sn(IV) phosphate with different mixing volume ratios. Studies on the effect of eluant concentration, elution behavior and separation of metal ions were carried out to understand the ion-exchange capabilities. Due to Cd(II) selective nature of composite, revealed by distribution studies, Cd(II) ion selective membrane electrode was fabricated. The analytical utility of the electrode was established by employing it as an indicator electrode in electrometric titrations having fast response time, 3–5s, and long life span of six months. Some physical parameters like self-diffusion coefficient (D0), activation energy (Ea) and entropy of activation (ΔS0) have been evaluated under conditions favoring a particle diffusion-controlled mechanism by studying ion-exchange kinetics.

A beryllium(II)-ion-selective poly(ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) solid contact electrode comprising 9,10-dinitrobenzo-9-crown-3-ether was successfully developed. The all-solid-state contact electrode, with an oxygen-containing cation-sensing membrane combined with an electropolymerized PEDOT layer, exhibited the best response characteristics. The performance of the constructed electrode was evaluated and optimized using potentiometry, conductance measurements, constant-current chronopotentiometry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Under optimized conditions, which were found for an ion-selective membrane (ISM) composition of 3% ionophore, 30% polyvinylchloride (PVC), 64% o-nitro phenyl octyl ether (o-NPOE), and 3% sodium tetraphenylborate (NaTPB), the fabricated electrode exhibited a good performance over a wide concentration range (10−2.5–10−7.0 M) and a wide pH range of 2.0–9.0, with a Nernstian slope of 29.5 mV/D for the beryllium (II) ion and a detection limit as low as 10−7.0 M. The developed electrode shows good selectivity for the beryllium(II) ion over alkali, alkaline earth, transition, and heavy metal ions.

The construction and characteristic performance of PVC membrane electrode responsive to sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) are described in this paper. The electrode is based on hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide-Sodium dodecylsulfate (CTA+DS−) ion pair as ionophore in PVC membrane, which displays a Nernstian slope of −58 ± 0.9 mV/decade in a 5.0 × 10−6to 2.5 × 10−3 mol L−1concentration range and a limit of detection of 2.9 × 10−6 mol L−1. The electrode can be used for 3 months without showing significant changes in the value of slope or working range. Also the electrode has wide pH range of application and short response time. The electrode shows a selective response to SDS and a poor response to common inorganic anions. The selective sequence found was SDS > HCO3 −> CH3COO−> Cl−> I−> NO3 −≈Br−> F−> CO3 2−> C6H5O7 3−> C2O4 2−> SO4 2−> C4H4O6 2−> SO3 2−> PO4 3−. The potentiometric selectivity coefficients determined are indicating that common anions would not interfere in the SDS determination. The electrode has been utilized as an end point indicator electrode for potentiometric titration involving hyamine as titrant.

Background: The nanocomposites are formed by introducing inorganic nano-clusters, fullerenes, clays, metals, oxides with numerous organic polymers. The assembly of these materials exhibits better properties such as catalytic, thermal stability and adsorption properties, etc. than the individual materials. Objective: The nanocomposite synthesized here by sol-gel method was primarily evaluated for cation exchange properties viz, elution concentration, elution behavior, effect of temperature on ion-exchange capacity. The synthesized composite was used as an electro-active component for fabrication of Hg2+ ion selective membrane electrode. Method : The sol-gel technique was used to synthesize multi-walled carbon nanotubes Zr(IV) phosphate composite cation exchanger. By the technique of solution casting the material as an electroactive part was used for the fabrication of mercury ion-selective membrane electrode. The potential response of the electrode was also investigated as a function of membrane composition and plasticizer. Results: The composite cation exchanger exhibited 1.8 meq g-1 ion-exchange capacity (IEC). It retained almost 65 % of its initial IEC upto a temperature of 400 °C. Distribution studies showed the selective nature of the composite for Hg(II) ions. The ion-selective membrane electrode exhibited typical Nernstian response towards Hg2+ ions in the concentration range 1×10-1 -1×10-7 M. Conclusion: The results discussed reveal that a new cation composite exchanger-multi-walled carbon nanotubes Zr (IV) phosphate exhibited excellent cation exchange properties and was found to be preferentially selective towards the Hg2+ ions. It was also used as an indicator electrode in the titration of Hg2+ using ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid as a titrant.
