Determination of Trace Elements in Lead for Battery Applications using Atomic Absorption Analysis

This application note discusses the sample and standard preparation for trace elements analysis in lead, and the subsequent analysis using the Buck 210VGP Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer and Model 420 Hydride Generation system. The results demonstrate the flexibility and stability of the Buck 210VGP system for the wide-ranging requirements of the manufacturing industry. Furthermore, the sensitivity of the various trace metals supports the interference-free quality of the data.
