Microchimica Acta Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

A spectrochemical study dealing with the determination of some 20 trace elements in glass-making sands is reported. The effect of change of buffers, and hence of the matrix composition, on the line intensity is discussed. The detection limits for the elements determined are provided. The cathode and anode excitation methods are compared.

Zusammenfassung

Über spektralanalytische Bestimmungen von 20 Spurenelementen in Sanden zur Glasfabrikation wurde berichtet. Die Wirkung verschiedener Puffer und daher der Matrixzusammensetzung auf die Linienintensität wurde diskutiert. Die Nachweisgrenzen der untersuchten Elemente wurden bestimmt. Die kathodische und anodische Anregung wurde verglichen.
