Abstract
Abstract A POTENTIOMETRIC TYPE ELECTRODE FOR DETECTING SULFIDE ION ACTIVITY IN SOLUTION, AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SAME. THE ELECTRODE HAS, AS ITS ION-SENSITIVE ELEMENT, A MEMBRANE OF SUBSTANTIALLY IMPOROUS, HIGH PURITY SILVER SULFIDE SUBSTANTIALLY FREE OF METALLIC SILVER. THE MEMBRANE IS PREFERABLY MADE BY COMPRESSING SILVER SULFIDE POWDER TO FORM AN IMPOROUS SHEET OR PELLET. THE MEMBRANE IS USED BY CONTACTING ONE SURFACE TO A REFERENCE ELECTRODE AT A FIXED OTENTIAL WHILE CONTACTING THE OTHER SURFACE WITH THE TEST SOLUTION, THUS CREATING A HALF-CELL ACROSS WHICH VOLTAGE WILL VARY AS A FUNCTION OF ION-ACTIVITY IN THE TEST SOLUTION IN A NERNSTIAN MANNER.
