Abstract:

Carboxylic carbon nanotubes were used in the chromogenic reaction for the determination of lead with 2,3,7-trihydroxy-9-(3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)flunrone(DBH-PF). A red complex was formed in the borate buffer solution in a pH range of 9.4-10.0 The maximum absorption of the complex appeared at 558.0 nm, and the apparent molar absorptivity was 5.62×104 L·mol-1·cm-1. The linearity of the Pb2+ in mass concentration ranges from 1 μg to 50 μg per 25 mL of solution with a correlation coefficient of 0.999 6. This method has been applied to the determination of trace lead in cosmetics successfully.
