Title: Lead-Based Second-Kind Electrodes in Aqueous Medium and in Aqueous-Organic Solvent Mixtures

Coordinator(s): T. Mussini

Completion Date: 2002 - project completed

Objective:
The availability of second-kind electrodes for sensing ions other than halides, is poor in aqueous media and even worst in aqueous-organic solvent mixtures. Extensive measurements have allowed a critical revision of all existing data and procedures, together with extension of the field of application. Directions for optimization of electrode designs, set-up, standardization and operation procedures (both for thermodynamic and analytical applications) are now focused. Standard electrode potentials have been critically redetermined, or newly determined. The parallel performances of second-kind lead/lead chromate, lead/lead sulphate, and lead/lead phosphate electrodes have been calibrated.

Progress:
Project completed - IUPAC Technical Report published in Pure Appl. Chem. 74(4), 593-600, 2002.
