Download or read book Electrothermal Atomization for Analytical Atomic Spectrometry written by Kenneth W. Jackson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1999-10-25 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive and authoritative treatise on all aspects of the theory, instrumentation and practical usefulness of electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) and associated techniques. 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. 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 make this a key resource for graduate students in analytical chemistry, researchers in analytical atomic spectrometry and analysts who routinely use ETAAS.
