An Atomic Absorption Method For Determining Micromolar Quantities Of Primary Aliphatic Amines In The Presence Of Secondary And Tertiary Aliphatic Amines, Nathalie Harwood Perkins Aug 1975

An Atomic Absorption Method For Determining Micromolar Quantities Of Primary Aliphatic Amines In The Presence Of Secondary And Tertiary Aliphatic Amines, Nathalie Harwood Perkins

Master's Theses

A method for the determination of primary aliphatic amines in the presence of secondary and tertiary amines is described. The primary amine is reacted wit ha complexing reagent containing cupric chloride, salicylaldehyde and triethanolamine. The copper complex formed is extracted into 10% hexanol in toluene. The amount of copper in the toluene layer is determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy. This is a measure of the primary amine in the sample. The method can be successfulyl applied to both monoamines and diamines as well as an amino alcohol. Data for the analysis is + 0.05% at the 2% level and below. …


A Method For The Determination Of Trace Metals In Carbon By Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy, Leo Francis Meyer Aug 1966

A Method For The Determination Of Trace Metals In Carbon By Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy, Leo Francis Meyer

Master's Theses

The object of this research was to develop an accurate, rapid and economical method for determining trace amounts of metals in carbons, especially in activated carbons designed as gas adsorbents. More specifically, the investigation was directed primarily to the determination of K, Ca, and Fe in Carbons
