Abstract

In a sheet type reference electrode having a gelatinized internal solution, a liquid junction surface of the gelatinized internal solution is coated with a hydrophilic porous thin film. Alternatively, a liquid junction member contacts the gelatinized internal solution and is coated with a hydrophilic porous thin film. In either event, the thin film controls the diffusion of ions from the gelatinized internal solution. A liquid junction portion is also provided by impregnating a chemically stabilized, hydrophilic, high molecular porous material with a gelatinized composition which remains wet.
