U. Richts et al., DECOMPOSITION APPLYING ELEMENTAL FLUORINE FOR THE ANALYSIS OF ELEMENTTRACES IN FINE CERAMICS, Fresenius' journal of analytical chemistry, 349(1-3), 1994, pp. 251-253
Combustion in fluorine offers a new method for the fast decomposition
of several ceramic powders and sintered ceramics. The utilization of t
his decomposition approach has been, investigated as an initial step i
n wet chemical multi-stage procedures for elemental trace analysis of
high purity ceramics. Combustion conditions, element recoveries and bl
ank values from the procedure were studied.
