Determination of Ag, Sn, Cu, Mg and Cd in Nickel-Base Alloy
18 Dec 2012This application note from Analytik Jena presents a direct solid sampling method for the determination of trace amounts of Ag, Sn, Cu, Mg and Cd in nickel-base alloys. The measurements were performed with the high-resolution continuum source graphite furnace AAS instrument, contrAA®, and the automatic solid autosampler SSA600. Samples were measured quickly and efficiently, and only minimal sample preparation was required.

Atomic Absorption / Emission SpectroscopyAtomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and atomic emission spectroscopy (AES) — also called optical emission spectroscopy (OES) — are used to detect the elemental constituents in samples. Both techniques involve the atomization of a sample. Atomic absorption spectrometers may use a flame or furnace to create an atomic vapor of the sample before irradiation with spectral light. Optical emission spectrometers may use a flame, inductively coupled plasma (ICP), microwave plasma (MP) or spark arcs to atomize and excite the sample. At higher excitation energies, electrons can be emitted instead of photons, which can be useful for samples that can’t be atomized and for surface analysis. Explore electron spectroscopy equipment such as Auger spectrometers and photoelectron spectrometers for surface elemental analysis of samples.
