Spectrometer ICP-OES

The ICP-OES (Inductively Coupled Plasma - Optical Emission Spectroscopy) spectrometer can be used to determine the element distribution in aqueous media with high precision down to the ppm range. The method is ideal for wet-chemical determination of the alloying and accompanying elements of metallic materials, for example. It is also possible to determine the release rate of alloying elements by determining the ion concentrations in a corrosive electrolyte during a corrosion or degradation test. This allows more precise findings to be obtained on the corrosion process.

Description of the systems

 

The analysis method of optical emission spectrometry (OES) with inductively coupled plasma makes use of the fact that excited atoms and ions emit electromagnetic radiation, the radiation intensity of which can be used for the quantitative detection of elements. For this purpose, the elements must be transferred from their compounds to the excited state, which takes place by introducing the sample solution into a plasma. During the transition to the ground state, the excited electrons of the elements emit element-specific radiation in the form of electromagnetic waves. The wavelengths of the emitted light are determined using a calibrated scale, whereby the measurement is carried out with a photoelectric detector. The advantages are the high sensitivity (0.02 - 50 µg/L) with good precision (RSD < 1 %) and short analysis times.
