Zusammenfassung

Optimale Bedingungen für die Bestimmung von Barium in der Luft/C2H2- und N2O/C2H2-Flamme werden angegeben und der Einfluß von 50 Ionen auf die Bariumabsorption beschrieben. Im Falle der N2O/C2H2-Flamme wurden keine Störungen beobachtet; die Empfindlichkeit ist besser als bei Verwendung der Luft/C2H2-Flamme, in der Störungen durch mehrere Ionen auftraten. Das Verfahren der Standardzugabe gab nur dann befriedigende Ergebnisse, wenn es in Verbindung mit einem Zusatz von Strontium oder Lanthan verwendet wurde.

Summary

Optimum conditions for the determination of barium in both the air-acetylene and nitrous oxide-acetylene flames have been given and the influence of 50 ions on the barium absorbance has been investigated. In the nitrous oxide-acetylene flame no interference effects occurred and the sensitivity was much better than that obtained with the air-acetylene flame in which several ions caused interference. The standard additions method failed to overcome these interferences but did give satisfactory results when used in conjunction with a releasing agent.
