Introduction of Naphtha Using an Enhanced Temperature Controlled Nebulizer System with ICP-AES Detection
Introduction of Naphtha Using an Enhanced Temperature Controlled Nebulizer System with ICP-AES Detection
14 Jul 2015This application notes demonstrates the use of a specialized nebulizer system that features both variable heater and cooler temperature controls, allowing the analysis of a naphtha sample without sample dilution or the use of oxygen addition. Introduction of undiluted commercial naphtha into an ICP-AES can cause plasma instability or failure.

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. Find the best atomic absorption, photoelectron and optical emission spectrometers in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Environmental Monitoring and TestingEnvironmental monitoring and testing uses handheld portable analyzers, kits, spectrometers or chromatography systems for air, water, soil, food and other sample testing. Useful features of analyzers such as BOD and COD include portability, easy calibration, automation and sensitivity. Environmental test kits for pH, water, moisture, etc, should be accurate, sensitive, reliable, fast and easy to use.Trace Level ImpuritiesTrace level impurities refer to low concentrations of unwanted substances found in chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and other products. Detecting and removing these impurities is crucial for product safety and regulatory compliance. Explore trace impurity analysis tools in our peer-reviewed product directory; compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.VolatilesVolatiles are a group of compounds that have a low boiling point and evaporate at room temperature. Volatiles, such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), can be used to determine shelf-life of food samples. GC-MS is typically used to analyze volatiles.PetrochemicalsPetrochemicals are chemical products derived from petroleum or natural gas, essential in creating plastics, fuels, and synthetic materials. Analytical techniques help ensure product quality and environmental compliance. Browse equipment for petrochemical analysis in our product directory.HydrocarbonFuel and Energy
