Reagents for Inorganic Trace Analysis
Sensitive trace analysis applications require extremely pure sample preparation reagents.
These digestive reagents cannot contain metal ions or other impurities. In addition, complete decomposition of the sample is required to achieve reproducible and
accurate elemental results by instrumental analytical methods.
Sample wet digestion/dissolution is a method that breaks down the components of a matrix into simple chemical forms.
This digestion can occur in three ways:
- With the introduction of energy such as heat
- By using a chemical reagent such as an acid
- By a combination of these two methods
Most analytical measurements using highly sensitive methods (AAS, ICP-AES, stripping voltammetry, ion chromatography, etc) are performed on samples in solution. One of the most effective and economical sample preparation method is microwave digestion.
In most cases, achieving homogeneity and mineralization of the sample is sufficient UV photolysis using hydrogen peroxide and either potassium persulfate or nitric acid is very often the method of choice for the decomposition of organic impurities in aqueous solutions.
The most commonly used reagents for wet decomposition are mineral and oxidizing acids. Wet decomposition has the advantage of being effective on both inorganic and organic materials. It often destroys or removes the sample matrix, thus helping to reduce or eliminate some types of interference.
