 Carbon paste electrode

A carbon paste electrode (CPE) is an electrochemical sensor that is widely used in various applications, including analytical chemistry, electrochemical studies, and environmental monitoring. It is made by mixing a carbon-based material, typically powdered graphite or graphite particles, with a suitable binder (such as a polymer or oil) to form a paste. This paste is then applied to a conductive substrate, often a metal rod or electrode, to form the working surface of the electrode.
