The TiN electrode studied in this paper showed a linear response in the pH range of 11-14 with a response slope of -60 mV/pH. The correlation coefficient was 0.998. The response time of the electrode was about 1 min. It exhibits some advantages over the glass pH electrode in more rigid structure and better selectivity toward cations of alkali metals, effectively overcoming the interference of Na + in high pH solution. No interferences from commonly accompanying cations and anions were observed. The electrode also showed a high stability and a good reproducibility. The potential drift was less than 2 mV as measured in pH 13.5 and 14 solution for 2 h. When the electrode was alternately measured in the solution of pH 13.5 and 14 solution, the relative standard deviation estimated for six measurements were about 0.27% and 0.29%, respectively.
