Abstract:
An improved inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) method has been applied to the determination of Li and A1 mass fractions and the Li/A1 amount-of-substance ratio in representative samples of LiA1O2. This ICP-OES method has uncertainty on the order of 0.2%,(2,3) comparable to the best analytical methods. This method is based on several strategies, which are detailed in this work. The mean measured mass fractions of Li and A1 in eight samples were 0.10151 +/- 0.00016 (+/-0.16%) and 0.41068 +/- 0.00056 (+/-0.14%), and the mean Li/A1 amount-of-substance ratio was 0.9793 +/- 0.0017 (+/-0.17%). The uncertainty is dominated by sample handling and heterogeneity-about a factor of 2 larger than the ICP-OES instrumental uncertainties, which were 0.04% for A1 and 0.07% for Li.
