Deskripsi

This paper investigated the response time, chloride selectivity, and temperature coefficients of the arrayed flexible ruthenium oxide chloride ion sensor in sodium chloride (NaCl) solutions with concentrations from 10<sup>-5</sup> M to 1 M. The response time was 7 s in 1 M NaCl solution at room temperature, showing that the sensor had the characteristics of the fast response. The selectivity coefficients of the SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2-</sup> ion, NO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup> ion, CO<sub>3</sub><sup>2-</sup> ion, ClO<sup>-</sup> ion, and ClO<sub>4</sub><sup>-</sup> ion were 0.001, 0.056, 0.004, 0.015, and 0.006, respectively. The chloride ion sensing device had the good chloride selectivity. Finally, the sensitivity was investigated with different solution temperatures from 5 &#x00B0;C to 50 &#x00B0;C. The sensitivity was increased with higher solution temperature. The temperature coefficient of the sensitivity of the chloride ion sensing device was approximately 0.681 mV/pCl &#x00B0;C between 5 &#x00B0;C and 35 &#x00B0;C.
