PVC-based ion-selective electrodes with a silicone rubber outer coating with improved analytical performance

An outer layer of pure silicone rubber (SR), i.e. SR without any plasticizer, ionophore, or lipophilic anion, was applied on top of a conventional poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) based K+-selective membrane in a solid-contact ion-selective electrode (SC-ISE). The influence of the outer SR coating on the...

description An outer layer of pure silicone rubber (SR), i.e. SR without any plasticizer, ionophore, or lipophilic anion, was applied on top of a conventional poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) based K+-selective membrane in a solid-contact ion-selective electrode (SC-ISE). The influence of the outer SR coating on the analytical performance of the K+-ISEs was studied. The presence of the SR coating did not affect the selectivity of the SC-ISE, indicating that the plasticizer, ionophore, and lipophilic anion are spontaneously distributed from the PVC-based membrane into the SR layer. This was confirmed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Interestingly, the reproducibility of the standard potential of the conditioned SC-ISE was significantly improved from E0 ± 35.3 mV to E0 ± 3.5 mV simply by adding the SR coating on top of the plasticized PVC based K+-selective membrane. Moreover, the adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA) was significantly reduced at the SR coated ion-selective membrane. Thus, the addition of a SR coating on a plasticized PVC ion-selective membrane seems to be a feasible method to improve the analytical performance and to reduce the biofouling of potentiometric ion sensors.
