Copper corrosion is one of the important parameters used for evaluating the quality of biodiesel. In this work, a polypyrrole-chitosan sensing layer was utilized for the detection of Cu2+ in biodiesel using the surface plasmon resonance technique. With the sensitivity of this sensor being about 0.1...
