Abstract
- This paper presents new paste ion-selective electrodes for the determination of nitrate ions in soil. The pastes used in the construction of the electrodes are based on carbon black doped with transition metal oxides: ruthenium, iridium, and polymer-poly(3-octylthiophene-2,5-diyl). The proposed pastes were electrically characterized by chronopotentiometry and broadly characterized potentiometrically. The tests showed that the metal admixtures used increased the electric capacitance of the pastes to 470 μF for the ruthenium-doped paste. The polymer additive used positively affects the stability of the electrode response. All tested electrodes were characterized by a sensitivity close to that of the Nernst equation. In addition, the proposed electrodes have a measurement range of 10−5 to 10−1 M NO3− ions. They are impervious to light conditions and pH changes in the range of 2–10. The utility of the electrodes presented in this work was demonstrated during measurements directly in soil samples. The electrodes presented in this paper show satisfactory metrological parameters and can be successfully used for determinations in real samples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
