Abstract
Abstract A solid surface room temperature phosphorescence optosensing method has been developed for the determination of terbium(III) based on the adsorption of its binary complex with 1,4-bis (l'-phenyl-3′-methyl-5′-pyrazolone-4′-) butanedione-(1,4) (BPMPBD) onto the hydrogen form of a strong cation exchange resin packed in a flow cell in an aqueous flow system. The phosphorescence intensity is a linear function of the concentration of terbium in the range of 8x10−9 M-6x10−7 M, and the detection limit is 3x10−9 M terbium. The response mechanism was also studied. The present optosensor has been used for the determination of trace amounts of terbium in synthetic samples with satisfactory results.
