Abstract
In this work, pristine and Ag-modified lanthanum succinate polymeric composites were prepared as selective electrochemical sensors for the monitoring of mercury (Hg2+) in aqueous media. Furthermore, Ag-modified La-succinate sensor effectively distinguished Hg2+ ions from potentially disruptive metal species. It has R2 = 0.995 and a Freundlich adsorption capacity of 2.3 mg/g. The measurements of electrochemical impedance were also employed to evaluate resistance due to charge transfer. The sensitivity of the sensor is optimized for the lowest concentration of Hg2+ ions in the aqueous media with limit of detection (LOD) of 0.1 nM. The reported LOD for Hg2+ ions is well below the prescribed limit for the drinking water as per the World Health Organization. The reliability of this sensor was confirmed by evaluating its sensitivity (4.4 μAM⁻1) and its selectivity for Hg2+ ions. In addition to this, the sensor has very good electrochemical stability and repeatability for the repeated exposures of the same concentration of Hg2+ ions. These notable parameters of Ag-modified La-succinate electrochemical sensor show its potential for detecting hazardous Hg2+ ions.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry is devoted to all aspects of solid-state chemistry and solid-state physics in electrochemistry.
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry publishes papers on all aspects of electrochemistry of solid compounds, including experimental and theoretical, basic and applied work. It equally publishes papers on the thermodynamics and kinetics of electrochemical reactions if at least one actively participating phase is solid. Also of interest are articles on the transport of ions and electrons in solids whenever these processes are relevant to electrochemical reactions and on the use of solid-state electrochemical reactions in the analysis of solids and their surfaces.
The journal covers solid-state electrochemistry and focusses on the following fields: mechanisms of solid-state electrochemical reactions, semiconductor electrochemistry, electrochemical batteries, accumulators and fuel cells, electrochemical mineral leaching, galvanic metal plating, electrochemical potential memory devices, solid-state electrochemical sensors, ion and electron transport in solid materials and polymers, electrocatalysis, photoelectrochemistry, corrosion of solid materials, solid-state electroanalysis, electrochemical machining of materials, electrochromism and electrochromic devices, new electrochemical solid-state synthesis.
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry makes the professional in research and industry aware of this swift progress and its importance for future developments and success in the above-mentioned fields.
