Metal Ion Uptake and Voltammetry on a Dithiocarbamate Containing Polymer Modified Electrode

Abstract
There is a need to expand the range of working electrodes which can be us in analytical voltammetry. In this work, the synthesis of a thio containing (poly) N-Ethyl Tyramine electrode is described. Cyclic voltammetry, SEM and EPMA were used to characterise the modified electrode. The ability of this electrode to uptake copper, nickel, mercury or cobalt ions from solution was investigated. Detection limits of the order of 0.1 ppm were estimated using differential pulse voltammetry.
