利用电化学方法测定碳黑碘吸附值之研究.doc

中文摘要 本研究以電化學還原方法，直接分析量測碳黑樣本上吸附的碘，由碘的還原電量求得碳黑碘吸附數。本方法有別於一般以硫代硫酸鈉滴定測出碘溶液中的碘剩餘量，再估算碳黑上碘吸附量的方法，直接由還原電量精確測得碳黑的碘吸附數。 實驗結果顯示藉由原標準碘溶液中的碘含量，碳黑碘吸附含量與溶液殘留碘含量之質量結算，顯示電化學還原分析法具有之數據準確性，此外相同樣品經由多次進行電化學還原分析測試，顯示偏差值低且相對偏差值RSD低於6%，可得知電化學還原方式法具有相當良好之再現性。分別利用離心法及含浸法製備碳材電極，其中藉由離心法製備之碳材電極，由於碳材厚度不夠薄，導致分析時間較長，尤其是高比表面積且具有微孔結構的碳材，如BP-2000其分析還原時間需6個小時，以含浸法製備之碳材BP-2000薄膜，其分析還原時間減少至6分鐘，其結果顯示改良碳黑薄膜電極之製備方法，可改善電化學方法量測碳黑碘吸附值分析還原時間，使其方法具有快速準確分析的效果。但因添加Nafion溶液作為添加劑，量測碘吸附值約達實際值90％。 本研究結果顯示電化學還原法不需藉由還原劑硫代硫酸鈉，可避免標準滴定液配置、保存、滴定步驟及判讀滴定終點的困擾，且碳材樣品及碘溶液用量相對減少，達到快速分析並減低廢液達到環保的效果。 英文摘要 Active carbon materials are widely used in various applications including as a pigment, an absorber for purifications and a reinforcing agent for rubber materials. A general method for characterizing the absorptive capacity of a carbon black is by determining its iodine adsorption number (IN). The IN is the amount of iodine that is absorbed by a defined amount of carbon black, which is related to the surface area and adsorption abilities of the carbon black samples. The measurement of IN is an important test within the carbon black industries, such as manufacturing of carbon blacks and various products into which the carbon black is incorporated. The determination of IN has become increasingly important in recent years as the increasing demand of quality control of carbon blacks for the various applications. The iodine adsorption number of carbon black is generally determined according to the standard volumetric method. The measurement is performed by mixing an accurately weighed sample of carbon black with a portion of standard iodine solution. The excess iodine is then titrated with standard sodium thiosulfate solution to obtain the amount of iodine adsorbed by the carbon black samples. However, the accuracy of the measurement is limited, because the titration endpoint is determined by eyes. Moreover, the titration method contains many time-consuming steps such as regularly preparation and check of the concentrations of sodiu
