title: Preconcentration of microamounts of elements in natural waters with 8-mercaptoquinoline and bis(8-quinolyl) disulphide for their atomic-absorption determination.
abstract: A method has been developed for the group concentration of microamounts of metals (Fe, Co, Ni, Mn, Cu, Zn, Cd, Hg, Pb, Bi, Sb, Mo, W, V, Cr, Ga, In, Sn, Ag, Au, Pd, Pt) in the form of their 8-mercaptoquinolinates co-precipitated on bis(8-quinolyl) disulphide as collector, the latter being an oxidation product of 8-mercaptoquinoline. The collector is formed during the co-precipitation process, which is the reason for its high co-precipitating power. The elements thus concentrated are determined by atomic-absorption spectrometry after dissolution of the precipitate in dilute nitric acid.
