Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of materials, and in particular to a fast-response ion-selective liquid membrane electrode and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Ion Selective Electrode (ISE) is an electrochemical sensor, also known as membrane electrode, with a special electrode membrane (called sensitive membrane), which measures ion concentration by the selective response of the electrode membrane to specific ions. The ion carriers on the sensitive membrane cause changes in electrode potential by complexing with specific ions. For ions of different types and concentrations, the responsiveness of the ion selective electrode is different, and the changes in electrode potential produced are different, and the potential difference with the reference electrode is different, so the activity of a specific ion in the solution can be calculated by the electromotive force of the ion selective electrode relative to the reference electrode.
[0003] According to the different target ions, ion selective electrodes can be divided into hydrogen ion electrodes (pH glass electrodes), potassium ion electrodes, sodium ion electrodes, chloride ion electrodes, etc.; according to the different forms of sensitive membranes, ion selective electrodes can be divided into solid membrane electrodes, liquid membrane electrodes, composite membrane electrodes, etc. However, no matter which type of electrode, it has the advantages of high selectivity, rapid response, and easy operation, so it can be widely used in various fields. In environmental monitoring, it can be used to detect heavy metal ions in water bodies, such as lead, cadmium, mercury, etc.; in medical diagnosis, it can be used to measure the concentration of sodium, potassium, calcium and other ions in blood and sweat; in industrial production, it can be used to monitor the concentration of key ions in the production process.
[0004] The technical indicators of ion selective electrodes mainly include the following aspects.
[0005] Slope: According to the Nernst equation of the ion selective electrode, the electrode potential is linearly related to the logarithm of the ion activity, which is called the Nernst response. Within the linear response range, the change in the electrode potential when the slope S changes by 10 times the activity of the ion to be measured is called the step difference (mV / pa). At 25°C, S = 59.16mV / pa for monovalent ions and S = 28.58mV / pa for divalent ions. The actual response slope of the ion selective electrode often deviates from the theoretical value.
[0006] Linear response range: Ion selective electrodes have a wide linear response range, usually several orders of magnitude. The general electrode response range is 10 -1 ~10 -5 M, individual electrodes can reach 10 -7 M. The linear response range of the electrode is the basis of quantitative analysis, and a wide linear response range means that a wider range of ion activities can be detected.
[0007] Selectivity: When an ion selective electrode responds to a specific ion, it will be interfered by other ions. The selectivity coefficient K ij To express the degree of this interference, K ij The smaller the value, the higher the selectivity of the electrode for a specific ion. ij Value is 10 -3 The following indicates good selectivity.
[0008] Response time: The response time of an ion selective electrode reflects the response speed. It is generally measured by the immersion method. The measured response time refers to the time from the electrode contacting the solution to reaching the stable potential value (±1 millivolt). Generally, solid-state electrodes respond faster, as fast as a few milliseconds; liquid membrane electrodes respond slower, usually from a few seconds to a few minutes.
[0009] Stability: The stability of an ion-selective electrode refers to the change in the electrode potential over time in a test solution with a certain composition and temperature. The reference electrode potential is relatively stable, and the potential drift inside and outside the sensitive membrane causes a slight shift in the electrode standard potential. -3 The potential drift in the test solution is taken as the standard deviation. The smaller the potential drift, the better the electrode stability.
[0010] In ion-selective electrodes, the sensitive membrane is the part that recognizes and binds to specific types of ions. It is the most important component of ion-selective electrodes, and the core of the sensitive membrane lies in the selection of ion carriers. Ion carriers form charged complexes through exchange and complexation with specific ions, causing the membrane potential to change and generating response signals. For solid-state membrane electrodes, the solid-state transduction layer between the sensitive membrane and the conductive substrate converts ion signals into electrochemical signal outputs, playing an important mediating role, thereby improving the stability and response speed of ion-selective electrodes. For liquid membrane electrodes, the carrier can move freely in the liquid membrane, just like forming an ion channel to be tested to complete charge transfer, so the liquid membrane itself also plays the role of a transduction layer. However, the response time, response speed, sensitivity, stability and other aspects of existing liquid membrane electrodes need to be further improved.

[0071] Figure 6 In the experiment, 100 mmol / L MgCl2, CaCl2, LiCl, KCl, and NH4Cl were used as interfering ion solutions to evaluate the sodium ion selective liquid membrane electrode doped with MXene (MX-Na + ISE) anti-interference performance.
[0072] MXene is a transition metal carbide or nitride, which is prepared by etching the A element (IIIA, IVA group, mostly Al, Si) in the MAX compound. It has a two-dimensional layered structure similar to graphene. MXene is naturally hydrophilic because during the preparation of MXene, due to the etching effect of HF, hydrophilic groups such as -F and -OH are introduced on its surface or edge, which strengthens the interaction with water or other components without changing the conductivity of the material itself, thereby improving compatibility and enhancing the conductivity of the material. The above method combines the liquid film transduction layer doped with MXene and the ion recognition functional layer into one layer on the base electrode layer, while not changing the electrode's selectivity for specific ions (such as Figure 6 As shown), it accelerates the transfer efficiency of electrons on the electrode surface and thus shortens the response time (as shown Figure 2 At the same time, the introduction of negatively charged MXene on the electrode surface strengthens the attraction of positively charged ions, so the electrode has a higher sensitivity to cations (as shown in Figure 3 As shown). The present invention has found in the research that by using MXene as the liquid membrane transduction layer, its good conductivity can be used to form a conductive path to accelerate electron transfer, shorten response time and improve stability. After further research, it was unexpectedly found that after MXene is directly incorporated into the ion recognition functional layer (including ion selective membrane components), the negative charge of MXene itself can be used to improve the recognition sensitivity of cations without affecting the selectivity, so that the embodiment of the present invention achieves the purpose of high sensitivity, high stability, rapid and low cost detection of electrolyte ions.
[0073] Example 2
[0074] The difference from Example 1 is that the sodium ion carrier is replaced by the potassium ion carrier valinomycin. The other steps are the same as in Example 1 to prepare the MXene-doped ion selective liquid membrane electrode (MX-ISE), which can be denoted as MXene K + ISE, abbreviated as MX-K + ISE. Figure 7 The figure shows a potassium ion selective liquid membrane electrode (MX-K) doped with MXene. +The open circuit potential of ISE for different concentrations of KCl solutions, the KCl concentration range is 0.5-32mmol / L.
[0075] The method of the present invention is based on an ion-selective liquid membrane electrode. Ions are identified and bound by ion carriers in the electrode membrane component that have a complexing ability for specific ions. Different ion concentrations result in different electrode surface potentials after binding, so the concentration of specific ions can be determined based on the open circuit potential of the ion-selective electrode and the reference electrode. Compared with traditional ion-selective liquid membrane electrodes, the embodiment of the present invention dopes MXene with excellent conductive properties in the electrode component, increases the conductive path between the solid-liquid contact layer and the metal electrode surface of the ion-selective electrode, accelerates charge transfer, and thus shortens the response time of the electrode to ions. At the same time, the MXene with negative charge on the surface enhances the binding ability of the ion-selective liquid membrane with positively charged ions through electrostatic action, thereby improving the sensitivity of the electrode.
[0076] Compared with the prior art, the present invention realizes the direct doping of negatively charged two-dimensional conductive materials for the first time, which provides abundant conductive pathways for the membrane electrode as an electrochemical functional layer, greatly improving the efficiency and stability of charge transfer. The membrane electrode exhibits good electrochemical stability and extremely fast response time, solving the problems of slow response time and long pre-activation time required before use of existing ion-selective electrodes.
[0077] In the above embodiment, as a two-dimensional material with a negative charge on the surface, the doping of MXene makes MX-ISE have a higher affinity for positively charged ions (such as sodium ions and potassium ions), accelerates the enrichment of positive ions to the electrode surface and enhances the binding of positive ions to the electrode surface, so that the ion selective electrode disclosed in the present invention has a shorter response time and higher sensitivity, and the slope can reach 85-100mV / pa.
[0078] Compared with the prior art, the MXene-doped ion selective liquid membrane electrode (MX-ISE) disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention does not require the aid of large-scale experimental equipment, is easy to operate, and has obvious effects: the MXene-doped ion selective electrode is used as an electrochemical sensitive element in 10 -4 -10 -1 It has extremely high linear responsiveness in a wide range of mol / L, and the linear correlation coefficient can reach 0.999. While shortening the response time and having a wide linear response range, the stability of the ion selective electrode is improved, and it still has high linear response capability 14 days after preparation.
