Abstract
A new method of concentration and separation for determining trace amo unts of phosphate in natural water, using polyvinylmethylether(PVME), one of the thermally reverse polymers, was provided. When the solution was warmed to 45-degrees-C, PVME shrank greatly, so that the phosphom olybdate Malachit Green aggregate stuck to the walls along with PVME.
