Abstract

AbstractCarbon paste electrodes modified with a phenoxazine derivative, Meldola blue, and a phenothiazine derivative, methylene green, both strongly adsorbed on a synthetic zeolite were investigated using either glassy carbon powder (Sigradur K, SK) or single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) as conductive electrode material. In the case of SWCNT based electrodes, the formal potential of both mediators was pH dependent, as expected for a redox process involving proton transfer. In contrast, the formal potential of both mediators of SK based modified electrodes was practically insensitive to pH. This behavior is discussed in terms of interactions existing in the heterogeneous system mediator‐zeolite‐electrode material.
