Abstract

Recent progress in polymer modified electrodes for stripping analysis is surveyed, mainly concerned with ionexchange polymer and conducting polymer coatings on mercury thin film electrodes and other solid electrode substrates. Film preparation methods are discussed and applications involving different types of polymer film or polymer film composites illustrated, with emphasis on recent literature published in the last five years.

Keywords: Polymer coatings, Ion-exchange polymers, Conducting polymers, Stripping voltammetry
