The Wang Method of Semiquantitative Spectrochemical Analysis

Wang et al have made use of the lithium carbonate-graphite buffer together with controlled-atmosphere excitation to devise another method of semiquantitative analysis. An intensity gain of 1.4-3.7 was observed when the sample was arced in an argon-oxygen atmosphere and the cyanogen bands were eliminated.
