Significance and Use5.1 This test method for the analysis of aluminum andaluminum alloys is primarily intended to test material forcompliance with

20、 The Aluminum Association Inc.5registeredcomposition limits or other specified composition limits foraluminum and aluminum alloys.5.2 It is assumed that all who use this test method will betrained analysts capable of performing common laboratoryprocedures skillfully and safely, and that the work wil

21、l beperformed in a properly equipped laboratory.5.3 This is a performance-based test method that relies moreon the demonstrated quality of the test result than on strictadherence to specific procedural steps. It is expected thatlaboratories using this test method will prepare their own workinstructi

22、ons. These work instructions should include detailedoperating instructions for the specific laboratory, the specificreference materials employed, and performance acceptancecriteria.6. Interferences6.1 The effect of potential spectral overlap interferences andbackground will vary based on the wavelen

23、gths selected,instrument design, and may vary from instrument to instrumentof the same design. Variation of excitation conditions oroperating parameters may enhance or minimize these interfer-ences. For these reasons, the effect of the potential interfer-ences must be thoroughly investigated for eac

24、h element andmatrix on the instrument chosen for analysis. Practice E1479describes the typical physical and spectral interferences en-countered during the inductively coupled plasma spectrometricanalysis of metal alloys. Potential spectral interferences forrecommended wavelengths are given in Table

25、1. The user isresponsible for ensuring the absence of, or for compensatingfor, interferences that may bias test results obtained using theirparticular spectrometer.6.2 The use of an internal standard may compensate for thephysical interferences resulting from differences betweensample and calibratio

26、n solutions transport efficiencies.6.3 Shifts in background intensity levels because of, forexample, recombination effects or molecular bandcontributions, or both, may be corrected by the use of anappropriate background correction technique. Direct spectraloverlaps are best addressed by selecting al

27、ternative wave-lengths. If alternate wavelengths are not available, spectralinterference studies should be conducted on all new matrices todetermine the interference correction factor(s) that must beapplied to compositions obtained from certain spectral lineintensities to minimize biases. Some instr

28、ument manufacturersoffer software options that mathematically correct for directspectral overlaps, but the user should carefully evaluate thisapproach to spectral correction.6.4 Modern ICP spectrometers typically have software thatallows comparison of a sample spectrum to the spectrumobtained from a

29、 blank solution. The user of this test methodmust examine this information to ascertain the need forbackground correction and the correct placement of back-ground points.6.5 Table 1 recommends wavelengths from the NISTAtomic Spectra Database6that may be used for the analysis ofaluminum and aluminum

30、alloys. In this database, wavelengthsof less than 200 nm were measured in vacuum and wavelengthsgreater than or equal to 200 nm were measured in air. Softwaretables for individual instruments may list wavelengths some-what differently, as instrument optical path atmospheric con-ditions may vary.6.6
