Medieval furnaces

There were many types of furnaces and of distillation apparatus, but every piece of apparatus shown in this sixteenth-century illustration could have been found in earlier medieval laboratories or in laboratories as late as the eighteenth century. Alchemical, chemical, and metallurgical laboratories were relatively unchanged for hundreds of years. [Pg.23]

The AAS method has several limitations. For the trace elements, particularly the colorants cobalt and nickel, the dilution factor required for analyses of 12 elements by continuous nebulization places these elements close to the detection limits for flame AAS. More accurate data on these and other trace elements are necessary before conclusions can be drawn on the source minerals used to impart color. Phosphorus, a ubiquitous minor component of medieval stained glass, has not been determined by AAS in the course of this work, but has the potential to provide key information on sources of plant ash. A full understanding of the colorant role of the transition metal elements is not possible on the basis of analysis alone UV-visible spectroscopy, electron spin resonance spectrometry, and Mossbauer spectroscopy, for example, are necessary adjuncts to achieve this aim. The results of the application of these techniques and the extension of the AAS method to trace element determination by pulse nebulization and furnace atomization will be addressed in future reports. [Pg.148]
