Polished Silver Solid Amalgam Electrode: Further Characterization and Applications in Voltammetric Measurements

Abstract

Abstract Polished silver solid amalgam electrode (p‐AgSAE) appears to be a good alternative to hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). The present work focuses on analysis of the electrode material and of the working electrode surface. It has been demonstrated that this electrode can be successfully used in inorganic electrochemical measurements for determination of metal cations, nitrates, and thiocyanates, etc. Keywords: Polished silver solid amalgam electrodeX-ray diffractionAFMSEMElectrochemical measurements Acknowledgments The financial support by grant MŠMT‐COST OC D21.002 and by the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic (project No. 1H‐PK/42) is gratefully acknowledged.
