Abstract

Composite-electroplating of zinc particles with polytetrafluoroethylene at a zinc substrate resulted in a working electrode which could be used at high negative potentials (to - 2.5 V vs. Ag/AgCl) without significant hydrogen evolution. The electrodes were characterized by SEM and CV and were used to detect organochloride compounds in a water-acetonitrile mixture, by potential step methods.
