The article highlights the test results of a non-standard reference electrode made of a stripped of insulation strand of aluminum wiring, which were conducted on board an auxiliary marine vessel PM-15. The potential of the ship’s hull was measured at the same control point using three reference electrodes: silver chloride electrode No. 1; aluminum electrode No. 2; aluminum electrode No. 3. The vessel’s hull potential was measured over five days. All three reference electrodes were used daily. With the help of each electrode, fifty parallel measurements of the potential of the ship’s hull were carried out with a time interval between measurements of 5 seconds. To assess the accuracy of the measurement results, they were processed statistically. The factors that must be taken into account in the development of technologies for manufacturing non-standard reference electrodes are listed: using available inexpensive materials; avoiding expensive equipment in manufacturing the reference electrode; eliminating complex methods of storage of reference electrodes on ships. There has been given a diagram of measuring electrical circuits including the steel hull, a bulwark, a multimeter, a clamping device, switches, a silver chloride reference electrode, aluminum wires, etc. The results of the study can be used on sea-going vessels to organize the control of the protective effect of the hulls of ships and vessels in the absence of standard reference electrodes.

The article focuses on the importance of organizing the ship operators training, who control the operation of systems protecting the sea vessels from corrosion. There are presented the results of a scientific research - control of the operation of the tread protection system of the steel hull of an auxiliary marine vessel (floating workshop PM-15), which is in a long-term standby mode. The potential difference between the ship's hull and two reference electrodes was measured at a given control point. The control measurements have been carried out using the reference electrodes: silver chloride reference electrode recommended for use by regulatory documents and zinc reference electrodes (not recommended by regulatory documents for sea vessels). There have been made 50 parallel control measurements. The time interval between parallel measurements was 5 seconds. Control measurements were performed within 5 days from 07.02.2020 to 07.14.2020. The accuracy of the control measurements was assessed in accordance with regulatory requirements. It has been stated that both reference electrodes provide high accuracy of control measurements; the results of control carried out with the help of zinc reference electrodes are highly stable. It has been inferred that zinc reference electrodes can be used on Russian ships to control the tread protection of the ship's hull and can be recommended for using by ship crews for training ship operators of ship corrosion protection systems.

The article considers the problems of ship structures exposed to adverse conditions, which contribute to the failure of important mechanisms and reduce the service life of steel parts of machines. One of the most important reasons for the ship structures wear is corrosion. The experience of choosing the electrodes to control the sacrificial protection systems on board ships is presented. There are presented the results of measuring the potential of the hull of the boat ROOM 52-22 at a given control point, using a multimeter MASTECH MY 62 and two control electrodes. The first control electrode is of in-house design; it was made of electric carbon product for electric machines. A standard portable silver chloride reference electrode was used as a second electrode. Both electrodes have been in operation for 3 years. The vessel under consideration was in a long-term parking mode. Control measurements were performed from 23.05 - 07.07.2019, while monitoring the potential of the hull three times a day using several parallel measurements. The time interval between parallel potential measurements made ≈ 5 seconds. The potential of the hull was measured by a specially trained operator. The accuracy of measurements was estimated using the coefficient of variation. Analysis of the studies justified that the accuracy of the control results of the protective anticorrosion systems on ships depends on the choice of the type of control electrode. It has been found that the efficiency of the silver chloride electrode has a strong impact on its operation life. The results of full-scale corrosion studies can be used by ship crews to justify the selection of control electrodes.

The paper focuses on the reasons for the lack of proper control of the operation of the electrochemical protective systems of sea vessels, such as the absence of convenient technical equipment, primarily the reference electrodes, as well as the imperfection of the silver chloride reference electrode. There is considered the approach to the development of easy-to-use reference electrodes. A standard silver chloride reference electrode was used as the first electrode; experimental electrodes made of a copper wire strand stripped of insulation were used as the second and third electrodes. The experimental vessel is docked in the commercial port of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. The corrosion protection of the ship’s hull was evaluated by measuring the potentials between the metal hull and the reference electrode at a given point. The measurements were performed at a time interval from 06/10/2021 to 06/18/2021, evaluating the control of the hull corrosion protection was made by taking 50 successive measurements, which were entered into the control tables. It has been stated that the results of ship’s hull sacrificial protection control by using experimental copper electrodes from cabling comply with the regulatory requirements. The ship’s crew didn’t have any financial, organizational or technical problems, which could usually arise from the operation of standard silver chloride reference electrodes. It has been inferred that using regulated and non-regulated electrodes in the organization of corrosion control on ships and metal offshore structures is possible.

Background: Recently, Derris scandens, a Thai herbal medicine with anti-inflammatory activity, is widely used as beverage and supplementary food. When the traditional medicine is a choice for health therapy, the simple and reliable equipment is required to control the suitable consuming amount of the active component. Objective: To develop the electrochemical sensor for genistein determination in Derris scandens with high sensitivity and rapid operation. Methods: An in-house screen-printed electrochemical sensor consisting of a three-electrode system was developed for genistein determination. A silver/silver chloride (Ag/AgCl) reference electrode, a carbon counter electrode and a carbon working electrode were prepared on a 0.3-mm-thick plastic substrate by the screen-printing technique using conductive ink. The dimensions of each sensor were 2.5×1.0 cm. Only 50 µL of sample solution was required on this device for the determination of genistein concentration by rapid response square wave voltammetry. Results: The oxidation peak of genistein appeared with good response in acidic media at a peak potential of 0.6 V. Moreover, the signal was enhanced by modifying the conductive carbon ink with cobalt( II) phthalocyanine. Under the optimized conditions, the linear range was found to be 2.5-150 µM and the detection limit was 1.5 µM. Moreover, the small volume extraction was successfully developed without any further pre-concentration. This proposed method was applied to determine genistein in Derris scandens with satisfying results. Conclusion: The proposed method is promising as an alternative method for genistein determination with facile and fast analysis.

Abstract We presents the design and test results of a picosecond-precision time interval measurement module, integrated as a System-on-Chip in an FPGA device. Implementing a complete measurement instrument of a high precision in one chip with the processing unit gives an opportunity to cut down the size of the final product and to lower its cost. Such approach challenges the constructor with several design issues, like reduction of voltage noise, propagating through power lines common for the instrument and processing unit, or establishing buses efficient enough to transport mass measurement data. The general concept of the system, design hierarchy, detailed hardware and software solutions are presented in this article. Also, system test results are depicted with comparison to traditional ways of building a measurement instrument.
