This study describes a sensitive and accurate voltammetric method for determination of boron using metal nanoparticles/carbon nanotube modified electrodes. The oxidation peak of Alizarin Red S (ARS) at – V in the boronARS complex formed in ammonium/ammonia buffer solution (pH ) was evaluated as a response. The electrode modification conditions and experimental parameters affecting the peak height were optimized. The characteristics of modified electrodes were investigated using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. |
