Electrochemical sensor and method for producing electrochemical sensor
An electrochemical sensor includes a base member, a conductor disposed on the base member, an insulating layer covering the conductor with a portion of the conductor exposed, a silver/silver chloride electrode formed on at least the exposed portion of the conductor, and a water-permeable organic layer covering the silver/silver chloride electrode.
1. An electrochemical sensor comprising:
a base member;
a first conductor disposed on the base member;
a second conductor neighboring the first conductor;
an insulating layer covering the first conductor to form an exposed portion of the first conductor;
a silver/silver chloride electrode formed at least on the exposed portion of the first conductor; and
a water-permeable organic layer covering the silver/silver chloride electrode and having an outer layer film including cellulose acetate, wherein
the insulating layer covers the second conductor and the first conductor except for the exposed portion, and the insulating layer insulates between the first conductor and the second conductor,
the silver/silver chloride electrode is formed on the exposed portion and on the insulating layer, and
the silver/silver chloride electrode has an edge that extends over the second conductor.
2. The electrochemical sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the organic layer is a limiting film that restricts transmission of a component eluted from the silver/silver chloride.
3. The electrochemical sensor according to claim 2 , wherein the limiting film is a film of a polymer having a hydrophilic group.
4. An electrochemical sensor comprising:
a base member;
a first conductor disposed on a surface of the base member;
a second conductor neighboring the first conductor;
an insulating layer covering the first conductor to form an exposed portion of the first conductor;
a silver/silver chloride electrode formed at least on the exposed portion of the first conductor and over a part of the insulating layer in a direction perpendicular to and extending away from the surface of the base member; and
a water-permeable organic layer covering the silver/silver chloride electrode and having an outer layer film including cellulose acetate, wherein
the insulating layer covers the second conductor and the first conductor except for the exposed portion, and the insulating layer insulates between the first conductor and the second conductor,
the silver/silver chloride electrode is formed on the exposed portion and on the insulating layer, and
the silver/silver chloride electrode has an edge that extends over the second conductor.
5. The electrochemical sensor according to claim 4 , wherein the organic layer is a limiting film that restricts transmission of a component eluted from the silver/silver chloride.
6. The electrochemical sensor according to claim 5 , wherein the limiting film is a film of a polymer having a hydrophilic group.
