Chitosan as an ionophore in a polyvinyl chloride based electrode for pH detection (IR)

A heterogeneous membrane pH sensor based on chitosan, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and a suitable plasticizer was developed. The best overall performance was shown by a membrane with composition ratio of chitosan (ionophore) : PVC (binder) : 2-nitrophenyl octyl ether (2-NPOE) (plasticizer) at 20 : 30 :...
