Abstract

We reported a tin film CMK-3 modified carbon paste electrode (Sn–CMK-3/CPE), a brand new electrode combining the ordered mesoporous carbons (OMCs) and tin film to detect trace cadmium. As one of the OMCs, CMK-3 has the distinct advantage of conducting electrons quickly and good adsorptivity because the pores in it are regularly ordered and controllable with the pore diameters of about 3.8–4.0 nm. Compared to the carbon paste electrode modified by CMK-3 and carbon paste electrode modified by the tin film, the Sn–CMK-3/CPE has higher sensitivity and stability in the process of detecting Cd(II). Under the optimum conditions (mass of CMK-3—4.0 mg; pH 4.70, Sn(II) concentration—6.5 mg/L, deposition potential—1.2 V, deposition time – 300 s), the Sn–CMK-3/CPE indicated a wide linear concentration range of 6–100 μg/L with the detection limit of 0.8 μg/L for Cd(II). This novel sensor was applied to the detection of Cd(II) in river samples with good recoveries.
