1.Temperature compensation
Temperature/time behavior of combination electrodes When the temperature change of the medium is rapid, a conventional
pH electrode will drift until the temperature of the electrode and
the medium become equal. In order for a combination electrode to
react rapidly to the temperature changes of the medium, the
temperature of the inner lead-off element and the outer reference
element must always be identical. Alternatively the temperature
dependance of the lead-off elements have to be equal to zero.
Optimal electrodes are above all distinguished by the symmetrical
warming up or cooling down of their lead-off elements. They have
the same temperature coefficient and isothermal Intersection at pH
7 and 0 mV. Thereby a short response time to temperature changes,
as well as an accurate temperature compensation can be guaranteed.
2.General pH Information
B.1 pH Measurement Theory
pH is the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion activity and a
measure of the acidity or
alkalinity of a solution.
pH = –log A[H+]
pH is normally measured using a glass electrode and a reference
electrode.
The glass electrode acts as a transducer, converting chemical
energy (the hydrogen ion
activity) into an electrical energy (measured in millivolts). The
reaction is balanced and the
electrical circuit is completed by the flow of ions from the
reference solution to the solution
under test.
The electrode and reference solution together develop a voltage
(emf) whose magnitude
depends on the type of reference electrode, the internal
construction of the glass
electrode, the pH of the solution and the temperature of the
solution. This voltage is
expressed by the Nernst Equation:
E = Eo – (2.3 RT/F) x log A[H+]
E = Eo – (slope) x log A[H+]
where:
E = the emf of the cell
Eo = the zero potential (isopotential) of the system. It depends on
the internal
construction of the glass and reference electrodes.
R = gas constant
T = temperature in Kelvin
A[H+] = activity of the hydrogen ion (assumed to be equivalent to
the concentration of
hydrogen ions)
F = Faraday constant
For every unit change in pH (or decade change in ion concentration)
the emf of the
electrode pair changes by 59.16 mV at 25 °C. This value is known as
the Nernstian Slope
of the electrode.
The pH electrode pair is calibrated using solutions of known and
constant hydrogen ion
concentration, called buffer solutions. The buffer solutions are
used to calibrate both the
electrode isopotential and slope.
