  • The influence of process parameters of screen-printed invasive plant paper electrodes on cyclic voltammetry [Elektronski vir]
    Kavčič, Urška, 1985- ; Karlovits, Igor
    Using disposable screen-printed electrodes is a convenient way of monitoring environmental pollution, production process control etc. Usually, commercially available screen-printed electrodes are ... used, but more and more studies are being carried out in the feld of printing electrodes on thinner, low-cost and versatile substrates, including paper. In the present research, the comparison of screen-printed electrodes printed on diferent paper-based materials is presented. Two unique and innovative invasive plant-based papers made from (1) Japanese knotweed, (2) Canadian and Giant goldenrod and (3) commercially available cardboard were used as a printing material for the electrodes. The selected paper substrates were characterized, and screen-printed electrodes were printed. The infuence of substrates% properties and preor post-treatment of the screen-printed electrodes on the electrochemical behaviour is thoroughly analyzed. The results indicate that the printing substrate (roughness) had the most signifcant infuence on the cyclic voltammetry response. Comparing pre- and post-treatment of screenprinted electrodes, it was shown that grinding infuenced the electrochemical activity signifcantly, while corona discharge does not have as signifcant infuence. Besides, it was shown that the invasive plant-based papers are viable alternatives to commercially available papers and can be used as low-cost and eco-friendly alternatives for disposable screen-printed electrodes.
