Simultaneous determination of cobalt, nickel and palladium in micellar media using partial least square regression and direct orthogonal signal correction.
A simple, novel and sensitive spectrophotometric method was described for the simultaneous determination of cobalt, nickel and palladium. The method is based on the complex formation of Co, Ni and Pd with 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphtol (PAN) in Tween-80 micellar media. All factors affecting on the sensitivity were optimized and the linear dynamic range for determination of Co, Ni and Pd was found. The experimental calibration matrix was designed by measuring the absorbance over the range of 520-700 nm for 21 samples of 0.10-1.0, 0.050-0.50 and 0.050-4.0 microg ml(-1) of Co, Ni and Pd, respectively. The partial least square (PLS) modeling based on singular value decomposition (SVD) was used for the multivariate calibration of the spectrophotometric data. The direct orthogonal signal correction was used for pre-processing of data matrices and the prediction results of model, with and without using direct orthogonal signal correction, were statistically compared. The effects of various anions and cations on selectivity of the method were investigated. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of Co, Ni and Pd in water and alloy samples.
