Abstract
The construction, performance and application of polymeric membrane (PME) and coated wire (CWE) palladium(II)-selective electrodes based on the ion pair between tetra bromopalladate(II) and hexadecylpyridinium cation (HDP +) in a poly(vinyl chloride) matrix, plasticized with o-NPOE are described. The influence of membrane composition, bromide ion concentration and pH on the potentiometric responses of electrodes were investigated. Nernstian responses were obtained for the two type of electrodes with low limits of detection (1.0×10 −6 M for PME and 5.0×10 −8 M for CWE). The potentiometric responses are independent of the pH of test solution in the range 3–8. The response time of electrodes are fast (30 s for PME and 10 s for CWE), and they can be used for at least 3 months without any considerable divergence in potentials. The proposed electrodes revealed good selectivity for palladium(II) respect to different cations and anions. They were used to the direct potentiometric determination of palladium(II) in silicon-alumina catalysts.
