Abstract

A chelating ion-exchange resin (1-hydroxy-2-naphthaldoxime-formaldehyde polymer) containing nitrogen and oxygen donor atoms was prepared and characterized. The resin behaves as a selective chelating ion exchanger for some metal ions. The poly(vinyl chloride)-based membrane electrode of the resin shows a Nernstian response for Ni 2+ over a wide concentration range (2.94 × 10 3–5.87 × 10 3 mg dm −3) between pH 3.0 and 7.5. The electrode is found to possess adequate stability and specific selectivity with a response time of 10 s. The sensor can also be used in a partially non-aqueous medium having a 35% (v/v) non-aqueous content.
