Improved accuracy in the measurement of wear metals and additives in lubricant oils by ICP-OES
3 Aug 2020In this study, a series of used lubricant and hydraulic oil samples were analyzed using an Agilent 5800 Radial View (RV) ICP-OES. The IntelliQuant software routine was used to identify interferences and suggest the most appropriate wavelength for the analysis. The extra information provided by IntelliQuant ensures that high-quality results are produced first time, without rerunning samples or standards.

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.

It involves ionizing elements in the samples with extremely high-temperature Argon (Ar) plasma and then using a mass spectrometer to measure the number of ions based on their mass-to-charge ratio (m/z).
