A fast and robust direct solid sampling method for the determination of 27 trace, main and minor elements in soda-lime glass based on ETV-ICP OES and using a gaseous halogenating modifier

Abstract

A method, based on electrothermal vaporization (ETV) coupled to inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES), has been optimized for direct solid sampling analysis of soda-lime glass—the most common...

Atomic spectrometry update: review of advances in the analysis of metals, chemicals and materials

“…A paper by Hommel et al used ETV as a means of sample introduction to an ICP-OES instrument for the determination of 27 analytes in soda-lime glass. 162 The material, a candidate reference material with the code BAM-S005c, was crushed to a particle size of <100 μm and then inserted to the ETV apparatus. A gaseous matrix modifier (trifluoromethane) was used at a flow rate of 2.3 mL min −1 to help volatilise the material completely to the ICP.…”

Forensic analysis by solid sampling electrothermal vaporization coupled to inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry

“…This involves streaming a gas modifier ( e.g. , CCl 2 F 2 (also called R12), 22,23 CHF 3 , 24 CF 4 , 25 or H 2 25 ) alongside the carrier gas, or by mixing a liquid ( e.g. , solution of NH 4 HSO 4 26 or (NH 4 ) 2 HPO 4 , 26 CHCl 3 , 22 or CCl 4 22 ) or solid (PTFE powder/slurry) 22 with the sample before loading into the graphite boat.…”
