Zusammenfassung

Eine direkte emissionsspektrographische Methode zur Bestimmung von Ba, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, V und Zn in Bodenproben wird beschrieben. Die von organischen Substanzen freie Probe wird mit einem Gemisch von Graphit und innerem Standard vermischt und mit Hilfe von 15 A Gleichstrom in einer Elektrode vom Typ UCC 1989 angeregt. Die Spektren werden in einem 3,4 m Jarrel-Ash Gitterspektrograph auf SA-1 Platten aufgenommen. Zur Aufstellung der Eichkurven werden synthetische Standards verwendet. Die Genauigkeit (Variationskoeffizient) beträgt ±11%.

Summary

A direct emission Spectrographic method for the estimation of Ba, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, V and Zn in soil samples is described. The sample, free from organic matter is thoroughly mixed with graphite-internal standard mixture and excited in UCC 1989 type electrode using 15 A d.c. A 3.4 m Jarrel-Ash grating spectrograph is employed to photograph the spectra on SA-1 photographic plates. Synthetic standards are used for establishing working curves. The precision of the method, expressed as coefficient of variation is ±11%.
