Different electrode systems have been investigated as possible voltammetric sensors for in-line measurements and monitoring of high concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (up to 30 g/l) as used in alkaline textile bleaching liquor. With most of the tested electrodes insurmountable ohmic potential losses are encountered, resulting in a saturation of the sensor output current. Taking accuracy and stability with time into consideration promising results are obtained with a rotating glassy carbon electrode, an ultra-micro platinum electrode and stationary titanium and zirconium electrodes, in decreasing order of preference when selectivity versus the many possible additives used in industry are not yet taken into account.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
