Abstract

Heavy metal pollution
has become a serious threat for human health, living resources and ecological
systems. Therefore, the determination of heavy metal concentrations is
important. In this study; metal sensor based nanoparticles was prepared to
determine heavy metal ions. For this purpose, solid surface electrodes were
prepared using the new synthesized calixarene functionalized multiwalled carbon
nanotube as nanopartule and developed a new method to determine metal on
prepared surface.

To determine the
performance of the prepared CNT-Calix-Cra/GCE electrode, SWASV (square wave
anodic stripping voltammetry) voltamogramme calibration graphs were obtained
using certain range of standards.  When the
sensitivity and operating range of the modified electrode examined it was
observed that a higher Cd(II) sensitivity. The optimum pH, Calix [4] arene
immobilized multi-walled carbon nanotube quantity, buffer concentration and
work potential for the modified electrode, respectively; pH-5,5µL, 0.1 M
and  -1.3 V were found. Deposition time
120 s and linear operating range 3,23.10^-7 - 4,81.10^-5molL^-1
for CNT-Calix-Cra/GCE and correlation coefficient was recorded as 0,9905.

Kaliks[4]aren Nanopartikül Bazlı Modifiye Katı Elektrot Yüzeyleri Kullanılarak Cd(II) nin Voltametrik Tayini

Abstract

Ağır metal kirliliği insan
sağlığı, canlı kaynaklara ve ekolojik sistemleri için ciddi bir tehdit haline
gelmiştir. Bu nedenle ağır metallerin tayini oldukça önemlidir. Bu çalışmada;
ağır metal iyonlarının kolayca tayin edilebilmesi için, nanopartikül temelli
metal sensör hazırlanmıştır. Nanopartikül olarak yeni sentezlenen
kaliksarenlefonksiyonlandırılmış çok duvarlı karbon nanotüp kullanılarak katı
yüzey elektrotlar hazırlanmış, hazırlanan yüzeylerde metal tayinin
yapılabilmesi için yeni bir yöntem geliştirilmiştir.

Hazırlanan CNT-Calix-Cra/GCE elektrodun çalışmada analizi yapılması
istenilen Cd(II) iyonuna karşı performansını belirlemek için belli aralıkta
hazırlanan standart Cd(II) iyonuna karşı SWASV( kare dalda anodik sıyırma)
voltammogram grafikleri elde edilmiştir. Duyarlılıkları ve çalışma aralıkları
incelendiğinde modifiye edilmiş olan elektrodun Cd(II) duyarlılığının daha
yüksek olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Modifiye elektrot için optimumpH,
kaliks[4]arenimmobilize çok duvarlı karbon nanotüp miktarı, tampon derişimi ve
çalışma potansiyeli sırasıyla; pH-5,5µL, 0,1 M ve -1,3 V olarak bulunmuştur.
Modifiyeelektrodun biriktirme süresi 120 s ve CNT-Calix-Cra/GCE için doğrusal
çalışma aralığı 3,23.10^-7 - 4,81.10^-5 molL^-1ve
korelasyon sabiti 0,9905 olarak kaydedilmiştir.
