By comparing emission intensities of elements inthe test specimen with emission intensities measured with thestandards, the concentrations of elements in the test specimenare calculated.5. Significance and Use5.1

20、This test method covers the rapid determination of 12elements in insulating oils, and it provides rapid screening ofused oils for indications of wear. Test times approximateseveral minutes per test specimen, and detectability is in the 10through 100 g/kg range.5.2 This test method can be used to mon

Follow the ICP manufac-turers operating guide to develop and apply correction factorsto compensate for the interferences. To apply interferencecorrections, all concentrations must be within the previo

23、uslyestablished linear response range of each element listed inTable 1.6.1.1 Spectral interferences can usually be avoided byjudicious choice of analytical wavelengths. When spectralinterferences cannot be avoided, the necessary corrections shallbe made using the computer software supplied by the IC

These differences can adverselyaffect the accuracy of the analysis. The effects can be reducedby using a pe

26、ristaltic pump to deliver solutions to the nebulizeror by the use of internal standardization, or both.6.3 ParticulatesThe use of an internal standard will revealwhen particulates cause flow problems. Use of a Babington-type high-solids nebulizer helps to minimize plugging of thenebulizer. Also, the

27、 specimen introduction system can limit thetransport of particulates, and the plasma can incompletelyatomize larger particulates, thereby causing low results.6.4 Solvent MoistureExcessive moisture (30 mg/kg) inthe kerosine used for dilution can cause poor recovery of someelements. This can be minimi

28、zed by checking each lot ofkerosine for moisture content using Test Method D1744 and byanalyzing all diluted standards and test specimens within 24 hof preparation.7.
