A Comparative Study of Electrode Materials for the Analysis of Tap Water

Abstract

This study reports results obtained during a 10-week summer internship at NRL on two separate topics. First, we perform a comparative study of trace lead detection on nine different commercially available working electrodes using a benchtop potentiostat. Second, we characterize the best performing electrode of the set, the glassy carbon disk electrode, with all four trace metals currently in the assay.
