title: Trace analysis by flameless atomic-absorption spectrometry.
abstract: The operating conditions of an atomic-absorption system based on flameless atomization have been investigated for trace analysis for Al, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg and Mn. The sample solution on a tantalum strip was atomized by electrical heating in an inert atmosphere within an absorption chamber. This technique allows the use of small sample sizes and results in a higher sensitivity than that with the conventional flame technique. Some interference effects and applications were investigated.
