Label “Check Std #2.”D8088 1628. Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Consult the manufacture

32、rs instructions. Design differ-ences between the various available units make it impossible tospecify exact operating conditions.8.2 Operating parameters should be established for theinstrument in use. Method development will yield appropriateconditions for the following variables:8.2.1 Torch config

33、uration,8.2.2 Nebulizer conditions,8.2.3 Auxiliary gas,8.2.4 RF power,8.2.5 Nebulizer pressure,8.2.6 Spray chamber type,8.2.7 Plasma gas,8.2.8 Mass flow to nebulizer, and8.2.9 Emission line used.8.3 Operating parameters should be designed for the par-ticular on-board computer. Parameters to be inclu

34、ded areelement, wavelength (see Table A1.1 for suggestedwavelengths), background correction points, integration time,number of repeat integrations (two minimum), automaticinternal standard correction, and re-calibration frequency.Analysis of a check standard every 5 test specimens isrecommended.8.4

35、Data tables should be developed in the computer forcalibration curve coefficients and inter-element correction.Inter-element correction is very important to eliminate inter-ferences and will guide the selection of emission line wave-lengths.8.5 Check all expected spectral interferences for the ele-m

36、ents listed in Table A1.1. Follow the manufacturers instruc-tions to develop and apply correction factors to compensate forinterferences.8.6 To properly apply interference correction factors, youmust first establish the linear response range for each element.8.7 Correct wavelength profiling is impor

37、tant and willreveal any spectral interference. Follow the manufacturersinstructions for wavelength profiling before proceeding withthe calibration.8.8 Spectral interferences can usually be avoided by select-ing the proper emission line wavelength. When they cannot beavoided, computer software provid

38、ed by the manufacturer canbe used. If this is not available, then the empirical method inPractice C1109 may be used.8.9 When analyzing unknown materials, the analyst mustalways be alert to the presence of interfering elements. Thereare three basic types of interferences that require correction:spect

39、ral line overlap, matrix effects that either enhance orsuppress the intensity of the element of interest, and a specialform of matrix effect that occurs when it affects the backgroundmeasurement.8.10 Appendix X2 includes a simple procedure that can beused to verify that the interference(s) have been

40、 properlycompensated. The procedure is widely known as the StandardAddition Method (SAM).9. Calibration9.1 Prepare the equipment according to the manufacturersinstructions. Unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer,warm the instrument up for at least 30 minutes.9.2 Perform wavelength profiling

41、for each element of inter-est using the solutions prepared in Section 7. The sample blankand all six rare earth standards should be analyzed at eachanalytical wavelength to determine if background or inter-element corrections are necessary. Do not analyze flasks 9 and10 at this point. If spectral in

42、terferences are noted, follow themanufacturers instructions.9.3 In this example, we are using a simple two pointcalibration, the blank (zero) and a high standard. Manymanufacturers systems will handle multiple calibration stan-dards. This is usually preferable and will validate the linearrange for e

43、ach analyte.9.4 Analyze the two “Check” standards to validate the linearrange.10. Procedure10.1 Analyze the test specimen solutions in the samemanner as the calibration standards.10.2 The computer system will present the concentration ofeach analyte as micrograms per milliliter (g/mL).10.3 Re-analyz

44、e the check standards every 5 test specimensto verify the calibration.10.4 Test specimens with analyte concentrations above thelinear range will need to be diluted. Care must be taken to keepthe internal standard concentration at the correct level. It isrecommended that dilutions be done with the “R

45、eagent Blank.”11. Calculation11.1 Frequently, the calculation procedure can be set up inthe on-board computer. In this situation, the results may bereported as the element or as the corresponding oxide. Themanual calculations are:Mass % 5C x V x DS x 106g/g!x 100 % (1)where:C = concentration g/mLV =
