Abstract
The real-time monitoring of lead ion interaction on gold/chitosan surface has been explored using surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy to study the kinetics of lead ion adsorption. The gold/chitosan surface has been prepared by spin coating of 0.55 ml chitosan solution at 6,000 rev/min for 30 s on a thin gold film. The shift of resonance angle has been found to increase exponentially with time for all the concentration of lead ion in the range of 0.5–100 ppm; and reach to a saturation value. At low concentration (5 ppm and below), the kinetic reaction was complete and reached to saturation value in about 2 min, while a more complex kinetic profile has been observed and complete at approximately 8 min for higher concentration (more than 5 ppm). The saturation value for the shift of resonance angle is directly proportional to the lead ion concentration. The sensitivity of lead ion detection for this SPR-gold/chitosan is as 0.00483 and 0.00675 ppm−1, for 0–100 ppm and 0–10 ppm, respectively.
