Abstract
The well known interference from metal ions on disulphur emission in f lames was investigated. Sulphite was introduced by flow-injection thro ugh a cation-exchange column into a hydrogen-nitrogen diffusion flame. The effects of sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, nickel and copp er ions were investigated. Cooling of the flame, metal catalyzed oxida tion, solubility differences and the formation of metal disulphites ha ve been suggested to explain the variation of the observed interferenc es.
