Abstract:H E dropping mercury electrode has been limited chiefly to Tsolutions that are free from agitation, for any stirring results in irregular dropping of mercury from the capillary and consequent fluctuations in current. The shielded dropping mercury electrode (8, 11) has been successfully applied to agitated solutions, but has the disadvantage of introducing a time lag in the current readings ( 7 ) .A vibrating dropping mercury electrode was developed by this laboratory to fill the need of applying the polarograp… Show more
“…The use of rapid mercury drop time (<1 s) polarographic measurements dates back at least to the early 1950's (1). Little interest was shown in this experimental strategy at first, but significant interest began to appear in the mid-1960's.…”
