Electrothermal Atomization for Analytical Atomic Spectrometry

Edited by K. W. JACKSON, New York State Department of Health and State University of New York, USA
Electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) has undergone considerable development since the pioneering work of L'vov almost 40 years ago. This book reflects the significant changes that have taken place in this popular technique for the accurate determination of metals at ultratrace concentrations in a wide variety of sample types.

Providing coverage of all aspects of theory, practice and instrumentation, this is the most comprehensive and authoritative treatise on ETAAS and associated techniques since the classic book by Boris L'vov in 1970.

This book provides coverage of:

  • The evolution of ETAAS
  • Heating characteristics of graphite furnace atomizers
  • Detailed descriptions of modern instrumentation
  • The use of chemical modifiers
  • Atomization from solids and slurries
  • Other specialized techniques using electrothermal atomizers
  • Extensive cross-referencing between chapters
Comprehensive coverage combined with a descriptive style, makes this a key resource for graduate students in analytical chemistry, researchers in analytical atomic spectrometry and analysts who routinely use ETAAS.
