Abstract: | The volatilization characteristics of six common sodium salts from the graphite rod of an electrothermal atomizer are described. Most of the salts have a relatively simple volatilization behaviour and can be completely removed from the graphite rod during a 20 s heating stage at temperatures 200–300°C above their melting points. This predictable and controllable vaporization behaviour shows the potentiality of the graphite rod atomizer for selectively volatilizing a sodium salt matrix and leaving behind less volatile trace metals for subsequent high temperature volatilization and measurement by atomic absorption spectrometry. |
