Simultaneous Determination of Cd 2+ , Pb 2+ , Cu 2+ and Hg 2+ at a Carbon Paste Electrode Modified with Ionic Liquid-functionalized Ordered Mesoporous Silica

Ionic liquid-functionalized ordered mesoporous silica SBA-15 modified carbon paste electrode (CISPE) was fabricated and its electrochemical performance was investigated by cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectra. The electrochemical behavior of $Cd^{2+}$, $Pb^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$ and $Hg^{2+}$ at CISPE was studied by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV). Compared with carbon paste electrode, the stripping peak currents had a significant increase at CISPE. Under the optimized conditions, the detection limits were $8.0{\times}10^{-8}\;M$ ($Cd^{2+}$), $4.0{\times}10^{-8}\;M$ ($Pb^{2+}$), $6.0{\times}10^{-8}\;M$ ($Cu^{2+}$), $1.0{\times}10^{-8}\;M$ ($Hg^{2+}$), respectively. Furthermore, the present method was applied to the determination of $Cd^{2+}$, $Pb^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$ and $Hg^{2+}$ in water samples and people hair sample.
