Abstract

A sulfate ion-selective PVC membrane sensor based on 4-(4-bromophenyl)-2,6-diphenylpyrilium perchlorate (BDPP) as a novel sensing material is successfully developed. The electrode shows a good selectivity for sulfate ion with respect to common organic and inorganic anions. The sensor exhibits a good linear response with slope of −28.9±0.5 mV per decade over the concentration range of 1.0×10 −6–1.0×10 −2 M, and a detection limit of 8.0×10 −7 M of SO 4 2− ions. The electrode response is independent of pH in the range of 4.0–9.0. The proposed sensor was applied as an indicator electrode in potentiometric titration of sulfate and barium ions, and to the determination of zinc in zinc sulfate tablets.
