Electrochemical Study And Analysis of Captafol

T.Raveendranath Banu, N.Y.Sreedhar

The electrochemical reduction behavior of the fungicide captafol has been studied by employing direct current polarography, cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse polarography, millicoulometry and controlled potential electrolysis. The general reduction mechanism has been suggested. Differential pulse polarographic method was used to estimate captafol in agricultural formulations. Both standard addition and calibration methods are used for the analytical experiments. The lower detection limit is found to be 1.20×10-9 M.
