Abstract:
A boron-doped diamond (BDD) thin-film electrode was prepared and used for the simultaneous detection and quantification of Cd (II),Pb (II),Cu (II) and Hg (II) ions using an anodic stripping voltammetry method.The BDD thin film was prepared by a hot filament chemical vapor deposition technique and used as the working electrode in the detection.The influence of experimental parameters,such as scanning mode,working electrode,supporting electrolyte,pH,boron concentration in the BDD electrode,accumulation potential and accumulation time were investigated.Under the optimized conditions,the stripping peak currents showed a good linear relationship with the concentrations of the four heavy metal ions from 1 to 7 ppb,and the results were very reproducible.
