Adsorptive stripping voltammetry of Ni(II) using fast linear sweeps

Summary Nickel was determined as bis-(dimethylglyoximato)-nickel(II) by fast cathodic linear sweep voltammetry with a rate of 10 V s–1 after adsorption on a static mercury electrode. The peak width at half-height was 60 mV. For determinations down to 1 ppb of Ni(II), only 40 s accumulation time were required without accelerating measures like stirring or potential application. Resolution and sensitivity were thus similar to differential pulse voltammetry but the duration of a measuring cycle was only 45 s (40 s accumulation, 80 ms for sweep and 5 s for readout). The method was tested with 2 industrial waste water samples and urine. The direct determination of Ni(II) in urine failed, whereas it was possible in the waste water. Concurrent adsorption was the main interference.
