Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electrochemical analysis and detection, and particularly to the development of a new electrode for the determination of borax. Background Art
[0002] Borax is a very important boron-containing mineral and boron compound. It is usually a white powder containing colorless crystals and is easily soluble in water. Borax has a wide range of uses. It can be used as a cleaner, cosmetics, insecticide, and can also be used to prepare buffer solutions and other boron compounds. Commercially available borax is often partially weathered. Borax is highly toxic, and many countries in the world have banned it as a food additive. If the human body ingests too much boron, it will cause cumulative poisoning of multiple organs. Currently, the commonly used detection methods for borax are the test paper method and the spectrophotometry method. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to modify a glassy carbon electrode with a nano-palladium structural material to establish a new method for the determination of borax.
[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: It includes a three-electrode system composed of a modified electrode as the working electrode, an Ag / AgCl electrode as the reference electrode, and a platinum wire as the auxiliary electrode. The modified electrode is a nano-palladium structural material. The three-electrode system is placed in the treated borax, and within the potential range of -0.8 to 0.3 V, the cyclic voltammogram curve of the peak current is recorded at a scanning rate of 50 mV / s within the concentration range of 0.05 to 5.0 mg / mL. The specific operation steps include:
[0005] (1) Preparation of the sensor: Pretreatment of the glassy carbon electrode, purification and carboxylation of carbon nanotubes, and electrodeposition to prepare a carbon nanotube / palladium nanostructure composite electrode material;
[0006] (2) Optimization of the determination conditions: Influence of pH, influence of deposition cycles;
[0007] (3) Establishment of the working curve: The working electrode is a self-made modified electrode (GCE matrix), the reference electrode is an Ag / AgCl electrode, and the counter electrode is a platinum wire electrode, forming a three-electrode system; The three-electrode system is placed in the treated borax standard solution within the concentration range of 0.05 to 5.0 mg / mL, and the peak current is recorded under the optimal experimental conditions to establish a standard curve equation of the peak current with the standard product concentration as the variable, as shown in Figure 6 .
[0008] (4) Determination of actual samples: The samples are adjusted to a range of 0.05 - 5.0 mg / mL, and the three - electrode system is placed in the prepared borax sample solution under the same test conditions as those for establishing the standard curve. Cyclic voltammetry is used to scan and record the peak current, and then the content of borax in the sample is calculated by substituting into the above - mentioned standard curve equation.
[0009] The present invention utilizes the good conductivity of the glassy carbon electrode and combines it with the properties of palladium chloride to prepare an electrode with high sensitivity to borax. Then, by optimizing parameters such as deposition time and the pH of the bottom solution, an electrochemical analysis method with high selectivity, high sensitivity, and easy operation for borax is obtained, and this method is applied to the determination of actual samples.
