Abstract: | Summary A newly developed apparatus was used for the determination of carbon in pure and high-purity iron samples. It enables the differentiation between the carbon content of the surface and the bulk by temperature-controlled heating in an oxygen flow. The carbon dioxide formed was measured by an IR-gas analyzer, type BINOS. At sample weights of about 0.1 g with surface areas of about 0.5 cm2, carbon concentrations of 0.04 g/cm2 of the surface and of 0.2 g/g of the bulk can be determined. By means of the results on 6 certified reference materials with low carbon concentrations and on 7 high-purity iron samples, the influence of sample form, treatment and storage on surface and bulk carbon is demonstrated. The findings confirm the already formerly stated tendency to too high values in the certificates of reference samples with carbon concentrations in the lower g/g range.
