Abstract

The performance of solid-contact coated-wire-type electrodes with plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) membranes containing metalloporphyrins as anion-selective ionophores is reported. The membranes are deposited on transducers based on graphite pastes and graphite rods. The hydrophobicity of the underlying conductive transducer surface is found to be a key factor that influences the formation of an aqueous layer beneath the polymer film. Elimination of this ill-defined water layer greatly improves the electrochemical properties of the ion-sensors, such as electromotive force stability and lifetime. Only highly lipophilic electrode substrates, namely graphite paste with mineral oil, were shown to prevent the formation of aqueous layer underneath the ion-sensing membrane. The possibility of employing Co(III)-tetraphenylporphyrin both as NO2 − selective ionophore and as electron- and ion-conducting species to ensure ion-to-electron translation was also discussed based on the results of preliminary experiments.
