A poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-b-poly(ethylene glycol) (PEDOT-b-PEG) block copolymer doped with perchlorate on FTO shows excellent optical and interfacial performance as a counter electrode (CE), such as low charge transfer resistance and low reflectivity for polymer electrolyte-based solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs), resulting in 8.45% energy conversion efficiency, greater tha...

The electrochemical preparation of poly-N-methylpyrrole (PMPy) coated platinum electrode in chloroform in the presence of tetrabutylammonium Perchlorate, hexafluorophosphate, hydrogensulphate, Periodate and Iodide as supporting electrolytes was performed. The influence of electrosynthesis method, dopant anion type and operation temperature on electrochemical behavior of polymer were demonst...

This work investigates the formation of oxidation by-products during the electrochemical removal of ammonium using BDD electrodes from wastewaters containing chlorides. The influence of the initial chloride concentration has been experimentally analyzed first, working with model solutions with variable ammonium concentration and second, with municipal landfill leachates. Two different levels of...

N-(2H-[1,2,4]thiadiazolo[2,3-a]pyridine-2-ylidene)benzamide was used as a selective sensing material in the PVC membrane to construction of a new chromium ion selective electrode. This liquid membrane electrode worked well with a Nernstian response of 19.7 ±0.4 mV decade-1 of Cr(III) in a wide dynamic concentration range of 8.0× 10-6-1.0×10-1 M. The electrode had relatively short response time ...

fluoride is recognized as an effective agent for dental caries prevention. generally, the main source of fluoride intake is drinking water. in this study, fluoride content in 18 commercial brands of bottled waters was investigated. six samples from each batch of 18 iranian commercial brands of bottled waters were supplied. the fluoride content of samples was analyzed by fluoride ion selective e...

2-amino-n-benzthioazolyl benzamide (abtb) was synthesized, characterized and used for thefabrication of a potentiometric sensor for cu2+ metal ions. the electrode exhibits linear response to cu(ii) over a wide concentration range (4.79×10 -8 – 1.85×10 -1 m) with nernstian slope of 30 ± 1.5 mvper decade. the electrode can be used in the ph range from 2 to 9. it has a fast response time of about1...

A selective electrochemical method for the determination of uric acid was developed by using nano poly cresol red modified glassy carbon electrode. This new material has been characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy, cyclic voltammetry and Differential pulse voltammetry. This modified electrode shows excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of uric acid in the presence of ...

In the present study, a new chemically modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) is constructed for rapid, accurate, simple, highly sensitive, and selective determination of Mo (VI) using differential pulse voltammetry. The electrode was prepared using magnetic nickel zinc ferrite nanocomposite (Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4), as the modifier in CPE (Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4/CPE). Mo (VI) was determined after preconcentr...

Potentiometric investigation on {H2O+NaNO3+PEG1500} mixtures were made at T=308.15K, using electrochemical cells with two ion-selective electrodes, (Na+ glass) as the cation ion-selective electrode against (NO3- solvent-polymer PVC) as the anion ion-selective electrode. The mean ionic activity coefficients of NaNO3 were measu...
