Selective phosphate sensing using copper monoamino-phthalocyanine functionalized acrylate polymer-based solid-state electrode for FIA of environmental waters

A novel solid-state selective sensor for mono-hydrogen phosphate (HPO4)−2 based on copper monoamino phthalocyanine (CuMAPc) ionophore covalently attached to poly (n-butyl acrylate) (PnBA) has been developed and potentiometrically evaluated. The all solid-state sensor was constructed by the application of a thin film of a polymer cocktail containing a CuMAPc–PBDA ionophore and benzyl-dimethylhexadecyl ammonium chloride (BDMHAC) as a lipophilic...
