Determination of Trace Elements in Lead for Battery Applications using Atomic Absorption Analysis
18 Jan 2013This application note discusses the sample and standard preparation for trace elements analysis in lead, and the subsequent analysis using the Buck 210VGP Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer and Model 420 Hydride Generation system. The results demonstrate the flexibility and stability of the Buck 210VGP system for the wide-ranging requirements of the manufacturing industry. Furthermore, the sensitivity of the various trace metals supports the interference-free quality of the data.

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.
