Qualitative Detection of Elements in Polymers. Oxygen Flask Combustion

Method 2.14 Qualitative Detection of Elements in Polymers. Oxygen Flask Combustion [Pg.120]

This qualitative oxygen flask combustion method [29] enables nitrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, sulfur and phosphorus to be identified in polymers in amounts down to 0.01%. [Pg.120]

Combustion unit - the electrically fired combustion unit was used in this work, although there is no reason why other forms of oxygen flask should not be used, with appropriate calibration. [Pg.120]

Filter paper - Whatman No. 541 filter paper. When not in use, store Alter paper in a sealed container out of contact with the laboratory atmosphere. [Pg.120]

Cerous nitrate, 0.0005 M dissolve 54.3 mg of cerous nitrate (Ce(N03)36H20) in water and dilute to 250 ml. [Pg.121]
