ABSTRAK

Kajian rekabentuk sensor ion jenis keadaan-pepejal telah dilakukan. Elektrod yang digunakan adalah berdasarkan kepada Ag/AgCl. Rekabentuk dua jenis elektrod keadaan pepejal telah dipilih, iaitu berdasarkan elektrod Ag/AgCl jenis rod dan jenis elektrod Ag/AgCl bercetak skrin (screen printed electrode, SPE). Penilaian termasuk kajian responsnya terhadap anion, khasnya ion klorida. Di samping itu, respons elektrod keadaan-pepejal ini terhadap beberapa kation juga dilakukan setelah elektrod rod dan SPE disalutkan dengan beberapa jenis fotopolimer serta pemegunan garam lipofilik yang peka kepada kation. Hasil kajian menunjukkan penggunaan poli(hidroksi etil metakrilat) terhidrat dengan larutan garam untuk menggantikan larutan rujukan dalaman bagi elektrod pemilih ion konvensional yang bukan berbentuk keadaan-pepejal adalah penting demi menghasilkan sensor berbentuk keadaan pepejal yang bersifat normal. Ciri sensor ion yang masih bersifat hampir Nernstian walaupun telah mengalami beberapa proses fabrikasi sistem fotopolimer menunjukkan bahawa sensor keadaan-pepejal ini boleh juga digunakan dalam rekabentuk biosensor potentiometrik selain daripada sensor ion.

ABSTRACT

A study on the design of solid-state ion sensor was carried out. The electrode used was based on Ag/AgCl and two types of Ag/AgCl electrode designs used were rod-shape and screen printed (SPE) Ag/AgCl electrodes. The assessment of the electrode response was based on anion response, especially the response of chloride ions. Apart from that, the solid-state electrodes were also assessed for their response to several cations after a photocured polymer membrane with an immobilised lipophilic salt sensitive to cations was deposited on the electrodes. The results show that the use of a poly(hydroxyl ethyl methacrylate) hydrated with a salt solution is important to replace the inner reference solution of a conventional non solid-state ion­-selective electrode if normal response of an electrode is to be obtained. The sensor response which remains near to Nernstian after undergoing membrane deposition processes by photocuring technique indicate that these solid-state ion sensors can be used for the construction of biosensors that are based on potentiometric transduction.
