Publication Liquid Polymeric Membrane Composition of Ion Selective Electrode Based on Thiazole-4-carboxamide as Ionophore(Amer Inst Physics, 2019) ;Jamil, NWZ ;Yahya, MZA ;Jumal, JKasim, NAMThiazole-4-carboxamide (Th) has been prepared as ionophore in an electrochemical setup of a cadmium ion selective electrode (ISE). There are four components in liquid polymeric membrane consist of thiazole-4-carboxamide (Th) as an ionophore, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as a polymeric matrix, sodium tetra phenyl borate (NaTPB) as an ionic additive and benzyl acetate (BA) as a plasticizer. An experiment is conducted using various different composition of the membrane. Result shows the optimum ratio of Th: PVC: NaTPB: BA is 5.0: 30.0: 2.0: 63.0 by weight percentage. The Nernstian response for Cd2+ that obtained the best response at a range pH 5.20-5.72 is having a slope of 29.4 +/- 1.1 mV per decade with a linear working range 1.0x10(-7) to 1.0x10(-4). However, the worst Nernstian response for Cd2+ at the same range of pH is having a slope of 15.7 +/- 0.6 mV per decade with linear working range of 1.0x10(-4) to 1.0x10(-2) and using 0.0: 33.0: 2.0: 65.0 as a ratio of Th: PVC: NaTPB: BA by weight percentage.
