Abstract
We have developed a simple, rapid and cost-effective Dual-channel "colorimetric and absorbance" sensor using polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) capped Rhodamine6g (Rh6G) dye composite. Dye-doped polymer composite probe (PVPRH) exhibit intense, narrow absorption properties and long-term stability than the bare Rh6G. The probe's colorimetric relationship with pH was demonstrated by absorption titration. The PVPRH provides a sensitive dual channel method for the determination of sulfide and bicarbonate with colorimetric response and absorption quenching. The synthesized probe, as a two-faced, exhibited remarkable colorimetric responses from orange to pale yellow in the presence of S2- and orange to soft pink in the presence of HCO3- ion, which can be observed by the naked eye also. Under optimal conditions, the relative absorption intensity decreases with increasing ion concentration of sulfide and bicarbonate ions. This trend is observed within the probe solution concentration range of 5 mM to 50 mM. The Dye-doped polymer composite probe is easy, cost effective, rapid, and has real time detection capability for sulfide and bicarbonate ions. The composite probe is stable and optically modified and can be successfully used for detections of S2- and HCO3- ions as strip senor.
