Abstract
Titanium ferricyanide gel is found to possess good ion-exchange capacity, mechanical and chemical stability, and selectivity. An Araldite-based membrane of this compound can be used to estimate K+ ions in the concentration range 10−1–10−4 M. The sensor has a very short response time and remains stable for 2 to 3 months. There is no serious interference by bivalent and multivalent ions. Among the monovalent cations only Na+ and NH +4 may cause significant interference.
