The assessment of hydrogen ion concentration(pH) is an essential measurement in numerous fields. Traditionally, pH is evaluated using an electrode with a glass membrane that serves as the proton detector once an exchange occurs through the outer solvated layer of the glass. There are many disadvantages to glass electrodes such as: breakage, scratches, glass and electrical properties change over time, and the finite lifetime of a glass electrode. A pH electrode was constructed from 2 mm plastic tubing, silver wire, 0.1 M hydrochloric acid as a filling solution, and a tribenzylamine based membrane. This electrode was used to obtain 50 measurements and concurrently compared with a commercial pH electrode over a pH range of 3.9 to 10.1. Statistical analysis gave an R2 of 0.998 and a slope of 54 between the sets of measurements. Measurement of soil pH using standard methods with this method of measurement with the same electrodes was also performed.
