Abstract

ABSTRACT Thiocyanate selective electrodes were prepared by incorporating cobalt and manganese phthalocyanines into plasticized ploy(vinyl chloride) membranes which were directly coated on the surface of graphite electrodes. A calibration plot with Nernstian slope for thiocyanate was observed over a linear range of five decades of concentration (1x10−6-1x10− M). The electrode has a fast response time, very low detection limit (5x10−7 M thiocyanate), is easy to prepare, and could be used for over a month. The proposed sensor revealed good selectivity for thiocyanate over several anions and could be used over a wide pH range. Applications of the electrode to the potentiometric titration of silver ion with thiocyanate and determination of thiocyanate in urine samples are reported.
