title: Silaned glass beads for the preconcentration and spectrophotometric determination of cobalt with 2-(2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol.
abstract: Silaned glass beads are applied for the preconcentration and spectrophotometric determination of cobalt with 2-(2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol (PADAP). Traces of cobalt are collected as the coloured PADAP complex on a column of the beads, and the complex is then eluted with a small volume of ethanol-hydrochloric acid mixture and the absorbance of the eluate is measured at 575 nm. The cobalt can easily be concentrated by a factor of 50-500 in this way, and 0.1-2 mug of cobalt in 100 ml of sample solution can be determined reproducibly. High concentrations of Fe(III), Cr(III), Pb, Zn, Cu(II), Mn(II), Cd, Al, Ca and Mg can be tolerated but Pd(II) interferes.
