Opis

The objective of this book is to develop a thinking approach to trace analysis by combining scattered information on techniques and materials used in trace analysis and by identifying the underlying principles behind the development of trace analysis procedures and their applications. Concentrates on inorganic trace analysis with an emphasis on the analysis of metals.

Inorganic Trace Analysis is unique in discussing both the development of new procedures for inorganic trace analysis and the improvement of existing methods. its emphasis is on improving technique rather than presenting ′recipes′ of already developed methods. By discussing the underlying principles behind current best practice procedures employed, the book assists the reader in the development of new systems for working under chemically clean conditions. Inorganic Trace Analysis, now available in paperback, is invaluable for any analytical chemist involved in high accuracy procedures. The authors have written a text that will not date rapidly, but will stimulate others to push forward the frontiers of trace analysis. Reviews of hardback edition: ′This book is timely, and I recommend it as essential reading for practitioners of trace analysis....′ – Chemistry in Britain ′This book will stimulate readers to extend the frontiers of trace analysis and make the "impossible analysis of today" the "routine analysis of tomorrow" – Trends in Analytical Chemistry
