Carlos Araújo Queiroz

I would suggest cleaning the contaminated platinum electrode with hot (to boiling) aq. hydrochloric acid (~ 18 wt%). Alternatively you may try conc. hydrofluoric acid (room temperature). If both approaches are found unsatisfactory, you may try cleaning with fused potassium bisulphate (~ 1 min) to be then dissolved with boiling water.

Mahmoud FERHAT

thank you Dr Carlos Araújo Queiroz.
