Preparation and Voltammetric Characterization of Electrodes Coated with Langmuir-Schaefer Ultrathin Films of Nafion®
نویسنده
چکیده
Filmes ultrafinos do polímero perfluorado Nafion foram depositados em eletrodos de óxido índio-titânio (ITO) usando a técnica de Langmuir-Scaefer (LS), depois da otimização das condições de composição da subfase. As características morfológicas das camadas foram obtidas por Microscopia de Força Atômica (AFM). Filmes de Nafion LS mostraram boa uniformidade e cobertura completa da superfície do eletrodo. No entanto, diferentes graus de organização das camadas poliméricas ficaram evidentes com respeito a filmes finos depositados por revestimento rotacional. Eletrodos ITO modificados com camadas de Nafion LS, pré-concentrados por cátions eletroativos de troca iônica, como o Ru[(NH 3 ) 6 ], dissolveram-se em soluções diluídas. A espécie eletroativa foi retida pelo ITO com camada de Nafion LS, mesmo depois da mudança do eletrodo modificado para eletrodo de suporte purificado. Isto possibilitou o uso do complexo de rutênio como padrão voltamétrico para o teste do fenômeno de difusão nos filmes de Nafion LS. Os coeficientes de difusão aparentes (D app ) do Ru[(NH 3 ) 6 ] incorporado no filme de Nafion LS foram obtidos por medidas voltamétricas. Os valores de D app diminuíram levemente com o aumento da quantidade de complexo de rutênio incorporado no filme ultrafino e foram significativamente mais baixos do que os valores para filmes de Nafion recapados, em acordo com a natureza altamente condensada dos filmes de Nafion LS.

Determination of methylmercury at Nafion coated electrodes by single and multiple pulse voltammetric techniques
The voltammetric behaviour of methylmercury at Nafion coated glassy carbon electrodes is examined. Cyclic voltammograms recorded at coated electrodes show a dramatic increase of peak currents with respect to bare electrodes, this effect being more evident in perchlorate supporting electrolytes rather than in chloride containing media. Experimental evidence indicates that ion-exchange preconcent...
متن کاملNafion Coated Electrodes as Voltammetric Sensors for Iron Analysis in Sediments and Pore Waters: an Example from the Lagoon of Venice
Glassy carbon electrodes coated with Nafion are used for the ion-exchange voltammetric (IEV) determination of Fe(II) in the pore-waters and acidic extracts of sediments of the lagoon of Venice (Italy). The coated electrodes give reversible voltammetric signals, well resolved from background currents, which can be used for quantitative determinations. The yield of iron extracted by HCl from the ...

متن کاملCharacterization Study for Nanocompositions of Methylene Blue and Riboflavin-Nafion on the Electrode Surface
Nafion is a perfluorinated anionic polyelectrolyte. The increasing popularity of nafion for the fabrication of redox polymer modified electrodes in recent years arises from easy fabrication, good electrical conductivity and high partition coefficients of many redox compounds in nafion. To investigate the production of nano-compositions by mixing electron transfer material and nafion polyme...
