Abstract

In this paper we report a chloride ion-selective PVC membrane, using bis (2-ethylhexyl) sebacate (DOS) as plasticizer and 2-(5-(4-nitrophenyl)furyl)-4,5-diphenyl imidazole (FFDFIN) as ionosphere.  The constructed electrodes showed a fast potentiometric response to  chloride  in the concentration range from 10-6 to 10-2 mol  ·  dm-3 with Nernstian slopes.  In the case of electrodes prepared  containing 1 and 3  wt  % of the ionosphere, the lifetime of the sensor was estimated to be about 6-7 days. The lifetime of the sensor containing 7 wt  % of  ionosphere was about 15-18 days. The electrode  containing 7 wt  % of  ionosphere was applied as an indicator electrode in the potentiometric titration of silver ions with NaCl.

Keywords:  chloride ion-selective PVC membrane,  ion-selective electrode (ISE), 2-(5-(4-nitrofenyl) furyl)-4,5-difenyl imidazole, chemical sensor.
