title: Molecular emission characteristics of various fluorides in a low-temperature-hydrogen diffusion flame.
abstract: A capillary burner supporting a nitrogen/hydrogen diffusion flame has been evaluated as a possible means of detection for several volatile fluorides after their gas-chromatographic separation. The fluorides of As, B, C, Ge, I, Mo, P, Re, S, Sb, Se, Si, Te and W were formed by the reaction of the element with chlorine trifluoride, and the intense molecular emission given by each was recorded. An attempt was made to identify the emitting species.
