Abstract

The composition, surface morphology, pH- and phosphate functions of phosphorus-containing oxide films on titanium formed by plasma-electrolytic oxidation in electrolytes containing from 0.05 to 0.2 mol/l of potassium dihydrophosphate have been studied. All the oxide layers incorporate titanium dioxide in the anatase crystal form and 7–8 at.% of phosphorus. The pH function of the formed films in the pH range from 2 to 7 and its amplification are revealed resulting from hydroxylation of the electrode surface in alkaline buffer solutions. The obtained oxide films on titanium exhibit a specific phosphate function and can be used as sensors in precipitation potentiometric titration, in particular, for water quality control of natural water bodies and waste water including determination of the content of phosphates and other acidic impurities.
