15、e GF-AAS instrument is calibrated using an acid blank, and 15- and 30-g/L lead standards. Samplesare then analyzed and the 30-g/L standard is reanalyzed as a sample at the end of the run. A matrixmodifier composed of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate and magnesium nitrate is used to increase thevaporiza

16、tion temperature of the lead.3 of 5952-97The method as written yields a close approximation of the lead concentration in the sample, and isconsidered adequate for its intended use. In the procedure below, some accuracy has been compromised forspeed. To generate data on a more accurate mass/mass basi

17、s, the standards would need to be prepared on amass/mass basis and the sample and nitric acid extract aliquots would also need to be weighed.1. Pipet 10 mL of sample into a 120-mL Nalgene bottle, add 1 mL of 3% iodine solution and cap. Mixthe contents by shaking for 30 seconds. Set aside and allow t

18、he reaction to proceed for 10 minutes. If the sample is known to contain more than 150 mass/vol-ppb of lead, use a smaller sample size, or dilutethe resulting nitric acid extract. Although excess iodine is added to ensure complete reaction, this methodis not recommended for lead levels above 400 mas

19、s/vol-ppb. Use 1 mL of iodine solution regardless of thesample size used.2. Pipet 50 mL of 10% nitric acid solution into the bottle, cap and shake continuously for another 10minutes. Allow a few minutes for the two layers to separate.3. Take an aliquot of the lower aqueous layer using a Nalgene eye

20、dropper and transfer to anautosampler cup on the GF-AAS instrument.4. Prepare fresh 15- and 30-g/L calibration standards daily by pipeting separate 3 mL aliquots of the 1-g/mL lead standard solution into 200- and 100-mL volumetric flasks. Dilute to the mark with 10%nitric acid, cap and shake well.5.

21、 Prepare the matrix modifier solution by pipeting 10 mL of 10% ammonium dihydrogen phosphatesolution and 1 mL of 10,000-mg/L Mg standard solution into a 100-mL volumetric flask. Add 1 mLof concentrated nitric acid, bring to the mark with water, cap and shake well.6. Transfer aliquots of the matrix m

22、odifier, two calibration standards and an acid blank (10% nitric acid)to separate autosampler cups on the GF-AAS instrument.7. Set up the GF-AAS instrument according to the manufacturers instructions, using the conditions inthe Table. If an instrument other than the Perkin-Elmer Model 4100ZL is used

23、, contact the instrument manufacturerfor help in determining appropriate settings for the instrument and furnace.8. Enter the locations of the matrix modifier, acid blank, standards and sample(s) into the instrumentcomputer. Program the autosampler to take 5 L of the matrix modifier and 20 L of eith

24、er the acidblank, calibration standards or sample(s) with each injection.9. Run the calibration (acid blank and two calibration standards), followed by the samples; and then runthe 30-g/L standard as a sample to verify the calibration. The instrument autosampler will pick up 5 L of the matrix modifi

25、er and 20 L of acid blank, calibrationstandard or sample, and inject both solutions together into the furnace. This provides 5 g of phosphateand 3 g of magnesium nitrate to increase the vaporization temperature of the lead species. If the 30-g/L calibration standard, when run as a sample, returns le

26、ss than 28 g/L lead or more than 32g/L lead, rerun the calibration and samples until a value between 28 and 32 g/L lead is obtained. If the sample reading exceeds the calibration range of the standards, the acid extract may be diluted oncewith 10% nitric acid.4 of 5952-97TableInstrument Parameters f

29、act, mLIf a dilution of the extract was required to bring the sample reading within range of the standards,multiply the dilution factor times the result from the equation to obtain the final result. If less than 10 mL ofsample was used (or available), substitute the actual volume used in place of 10

30、 in the equation.PRECISIONRepeatabilityBased on eight tests performed by one analyst on one day in one laboratory, the within-laboratoryestimated standard deviations (esd) were calculated for lead in gasoline at the 133 and 28 g/L levels. Theestimated standard deviations were 3.3 and 2.2 g/L, respec

31、tively. Two tests performed in one laboratory bythe same analyst on different days should not differ by more than 11 or 7 g/L, at the 133 and 28 g/Llevels, respectively (the allowable differences at the 95% probability level).5 of 5952-97The data quoted above is a “best case” estimate of the repeata

32、bility, and is equivalent to ASTMrepeatability statements. When the test is run routinely in the field, a control standard and chart should beused to develop a better estimate of the long term repeatability.ReproducibilityThere is insufficient data to calculate the reproducibility of the test at thi

33、s time.TIME FOR ANALYSISThe setup time may vary but once prepared a single sample can be run in 1.5 hours (elapsed time). Thelabor requirement is 1.2 hours. Multiple samples run together will decrease the average elapsed time andlabor time requirements on a per sample basis.REFERENCE“Determination o
