Abstract
Phenol is an aromatic derivative of hydrocarbons from coal which used as a base for making plastic bottles, cans of packaged food, and pesticides. However, this compound is emerging as a pollutant in the environment. This work, the carbon paste electrode based on Ag nanoparticle was developed for the detection of phenol. Carbon paste electrode modified Ag nanoparticles which were previously synthesized first and then mixed with graphite and paraffin. The best composition of CPE-nAg is 5:70:25 for Ag nanoparticles, graphite, and paraffin, respectively. After measurement using CPE-nAg, it is necessary to remove phenol on the electrode surface with 6 cycles. Measurement was carried out using square wave voltammetry techniques range with 0 V to 1.2 V, a frequency of 10 Hz, and a scan rate of 75 mV/s. The result showed the presence of an oxidation peak of phenol is 0.475 V in 1 M of sodium hydroxide solution.
