Abstract

The parameter optimizations of square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry using boron doped diamond (BDD) electrodes with different doping levels for cadmium detection were studied. The optimized relation among the peak current with the pulse frequency, the amplitude, and the potential increment for highly (1019 cm-3) and heavily BDD (1021 cm-3) electrodes was considered. The peak currents were measured around -0.75 V vs. Ag/AgCl for Cd2+ concentration ranged from 1 to 20 ppb. Both BDD films provided detection limits lower than 5 ppb showing that these electrodes are suitable to use in a mercury-free method to determine cadmium trace levels in water.
