A Novel Spectrophotometric Method for Determination of Percarbonate by Using N, N-Diethyl-P-Phenylenediamine as an Indicator and Its Application in Activated Percarbonate Degradation of Ibuprofen.

ABSTRACT: Sodium percarbonate (SPC) concentration can be determined spectrophotometrically by using N, N-diethyl-p-phenylenediamine (DPD) as an indicator for the first time. The ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry absorbance of DPD•+ measured at 551 nm was used to indicate SPC concentration. The method had good linearity (R2 = 0.9995) under the optimized experimental conditions (pH value = 3.50, DPD = 4 mM, Fe2+ = 0.5 mM, and t = 4 min) when the concentration of SPC was in the range of 0-50 μM. The blank spiked recovery of SPC was 95-105%. The detection limit and quantitative limit were 0.7-1.0 μM and 2.5-3.3 μM, respectively. The absorbance values of DPD•+ remained stable within 4-20 min. The method was tolerant to natural water matrix and low concentration of hydroxylamine (<0.8 mM). The reactio
