After the concen-tration they are separated into individual elution bands in theeluent on a separator column. The conductivity of the eluent isreduced with an anion suppression device, and the a

Quantitationof the anions in the sample solution is achieved by calibratingthe IC with a series of standards containing known amounts ofthe anions.

This test method has determined precision estimatesonly for these three impurities.5. Interferences5.1 Substances that coelute with the anions of interest willinterfere

16、. A high concentration of one anion can interfere withaccurate quantitation of another anion if their retention timesare close and resolution is affected. For example, caustic sodasamples containing large concentrations of chloride can inter-fere with the quantitation of small amounts of fluoride.Se

17、lection of a high capacity anion separator column willminimize this problem.5.2 Organic acids, surfactants, dyes, metals, etc., can causefouling of the columns and membranes used in this testmethod, resulting in interferences and decreased sensitivity. Itis very important to follow the manufacturers

18、 recommenda-tions for cleaning and maintaining the various parts of the ICsystem.5.3 The anion concentrator column in the neutralizationmodule has a finite capacity for trapping anions. Consult withmanufacturer for selection of concentrator column of suitablecapacity. Care should be taken not to exc

Calibration9.1 The retention time for each anion is determined byinjecting a series of standard solutions, each containing onlyone anion

The standards, therefore,must be chromatographed in the same manner as the samplesolutions, which includes passing them through the autoneu-tralization mod

The elution order may changedepending on the column used. See Note 1.NOTE 1Other anion separation and guard columns, and eluent may beused so long as the ions o

38、f interest are separated and the precision of themethod is not degraded.9.2 Calibrate the ion chromatograph using a series ofcalibration standards. Each standard should contain all theanions of interest. The concentration of anions in this series ofstandards should be prepared so they bracket the ex

39、pectedconcentration of anions in the diluted sample. After thestandards have been analyzed by IC, the “best-fit” straight lineis determined for each anion using the concentration versus ICarea counts. If the IC is equipped with a computer operatedsoftware or an integrator, calibration should be done

40、 accordingto manufacturers instructions for multi-level external standardcalibrations. If an integrator or computer is not used, calibra-tion curves can be created on graph paper by plotting concen-tration versus peak area for each anion of interest and drawingthe “best-fit” straight line through th

41、e points.9.2.1 A typical calibration would include a series of four tofive standards containing the anions of interest from 0.1 to10 gmL (ppm).10. Procedure10.1 Set up the ion chromatograph and the automatedneutralization device according to the manufacturers instruc-tions. The IC system can be set

42、up to accommodate the use ofan autosampler or manual injection with a syringe. Thedetector ranges are variable. The range setting required for theanalysis will depend on the concentration of anions in thesample and should be chosen accordingly. Table 1 lists typicalanalytical conditions for the anio

Details of the modification are not given in this testmethod.10.2 Equilibrate the system by pumping eluent through thecolumns and the detector until a stable baseline is obtained(approximately 15 to

Theamount of dilution is dependent on levels of anions in thesample. In many cases, when both high level and lower levelsof anions are to be quantified in the same sample, two or moresample solutions of different dilutions may have to be ana-lyzed.
