The resultant Fe 3 O 4 @TPB-DMTP-COF was then post-modified with 3-ethynylthiophene through the “Aza D-A reaction”. The Fe 3 O 4 @COF-thiophene composite showed a high Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area of 898 m 2· g -1 , as well as a high content of S (5.27 w.t.%). Trace mercury (Hg), lead (Pb), and bismuth (Bi) ions were extracted from environmental water samples, followed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) detection. Extraction conditions, such as extraction pH, sample volume, adsorbent amount, extraction/desorption time and elution volume, were optimized. Under the optimal conditions, the three heavy metal ions were extracted from 150 mL of aqueous solution within 20 min and eluted with 0.1 mol L -1 HNO 3 containing 8% cysteamine hydrochloride within 20 min. The method exhibited a high enrichment factor (188) and wide linear range of 3-5000 ng·L - 1 for Hg 2+ /Pb 2+ and 2-2000 for Bi 3+ , with the detection limits of 0.41, 0.97 and 0.47 ng∙L -1 , respectively. Furthermore, the reproducibility of the method was evaluated, and the relative standard deviations of Hg 2+ , Pb 2+ and Bi 3+ were found to be 7.5, 6.8 and 6.2% (n = 7, c = 3 ng∙L -1 ), respectively. The accuracy of this method was verified by analyzing certified reference materials in environmental water, including GSB 07-1185-2000 (202047), GSB 07-1185-2000 (201239) and BY 400143 (B2003113). The application potential of this method was further evaluated by analyzing real environmental water samples. Target Hg 2+ and Pb 2+ ions concentrations were found to be 4.91 and 62.5 ng∙L -1 , respectively, in the East Lake water sample and 10.2 and 103 ng·L - 1 , respectively, in the Yangtze River water sample. The recoveries of target three metal ions were found to be 86.1-104 % in the two environmental water samples at three spiked concentration levels.","PeriodicalId":8642,"journal":{"name":"Atomic Spectroscopy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41711526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its application for field analysis of environmental samples remains limited owing to the difficulty of hydrogen storage and transportation. Herein, a non-noble metal electrode-based hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) was utilized as a safe and environment-friendly hydrogen supply method for the efficient μPIVG of Hg, Cd and Zn. Subsequently, HER-μPIVG was used for the sensitive field detection of Hg, Cd and Zn in environmental samples via miniature point discharge optical emission spectrometry (μPD-OES). In contrast to conventional hydrogen-enhanced μPIVG, hydrogen was produced in situ and in real time using a superior cathode composed of cobalt-phosphorous nanomaterial, eliminating the storage and transport of hydrogen requirements and improving the safety, sensitivity, and feasibility of μPIVG-μPD-OES. Under the optimized conditions, the limits of detection (LODs) were 0.8, 10, and 14 μg L −1 for Hg, Cd, and Zn, respectively, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of < 4.7%. The accuracy and practicability of the proposed method were validated through Hg, Cd, and Zn determinations in two certified reference materials (CRMs) and several water samples with satisfactory results.","PeriodicalId":8642,"journal":{"name":"Atomic Spectroscopy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46453887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This method has unique advantages of low detection limit and high spatial resolution for the analysis of defects in crystal microregions. The regression coefficients of the calibration curves for each element were greater than 0.99, and the detection limits (DLs) were 17, 5, 7, 48, 5, 7, 16, 27, and 7 ng/g for 24 Mg, 45 Sc, 48 Ti, 90 Zr, 139 La, 146 Nd, 172 Yb and 208 Pb, respectively. The LA-ICP-MS measurements were in good agreement with the results obtained using conventional ICP-MS method. Segregation phenomena of elemental impurities in the axial direction of the BSO crystal can exist during crystal growth. Finally, the distribution of the impurity elements in the dendritic crystal defect region of the crystal was visualized. We believe that this work proposes a novel less-invasive analysis method for exploring the composition-defect relationship of crystals.","PeriodicalId":8642,"journal":{"name":"Atomic Spectroscopy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44348461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, studying the element-content distribution and segregation degree is helpful to guide process improvement and quality control. In this study, the cross section of a cylindrical electro-slag remelting ingot of a wrought superalloy with a diameter of 485 mm was analyzed by micro-beam X-ray fluorescence spectrometry, and continuous point-by-point mode was used to obtain high stability and accuracy. The element-content distribution and quantitative degree of segregation from the edge to the center of the ingot were characterized. The maximum positive segregation, maximum negative segregation, statistic segregation degree, and statistic conformity degree were calculated for each element to quantitatively characterize the degree of segregation from different points of view, and they showed the same trend as the element-content distribution. The results of metallography and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) showed that there were differences in the dendritic microstructures and precipitated phases in the interdendrites and dendritic arms from the edge to the center of the ingot, which explain the element-content distribution largely.","PeriodicalId":8642,"journal":{"name":"Atomic Spectroscopy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43906799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The oxidation process is based on a high-efficiency photooxidation reactor in which the reaction tube was passed through a low-pressure mercury lamp. The reactor provided efficient irradiation which resulted in the complete degradation of methylmercury and ethylmercury within 4 s and 6 s, respectively. The highlight of this method is the removal of oxidants and high temperature. The oxidation process is extremely high efficiency and therefore is easy to be coupled with flow injection (FI) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). In FI system, complete oxidations of organic mercury can be accomplished in the plain medium of 0.5% (v/v) HCl, 1% (v/v) HNO3 and H2O, therefore, simple Hg aqueous standard calibration curves can be used to calibrate both inorganic and organic mercury. The detection limits of Hg, CH3Hg and CH3CH2Hg were found to be 0.02 ng mL. In HPLC system, the detection limits were calculated to be 0.55, 0.84, 0.56 ng ml for Hg, CH3Hg and CH3CH2Hg, respectively. In addition, the method provided good repeatability (< 5% RSD) for both systems.

LIBS is employed for the online in-situ detection of volatile substances in two kinds of mothballs and to find their characteristic spectral lines. A machine learning model is then established to analyze the spectra of air and volatile substance in synthetic mothballs and natural camphor. The model based on principal component analysis and support vector classification achieved a recognition accuracy of 98.33%, indicating that LIBS has significant potential for recognizing volatile substances in mothballs when airborne. By comparing the experimental Raman spectra of mothballs and theoretical Raman spectra of their main components, the spectral fingerprints of mothballs are obtained as a supplement to LIBS detection.","PeriodicalId":8642,"journal":{"name":"Atomic Spectroscopy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45622651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
