Flow injection system for cadmium preconcentration on poly (octadecyl diitaconate)(PDI-18) and atomic absorption spectrometry detection

Abstract:

This work assesses the potential of a new adsorptive material: poly(octadecyl diitaconate) (PDI-18), for the preconcentration of cadmium traces. The procedure involves the formation of a neutral cadmium chelate with ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (APDC) as chelating reagent, its adsorption on PDI-18 minicolumns, and its elution with 300μl of methyl isobutyl ketone. Using 20mg of the sorbent material with a loading time of 2min per sample, preconcentration factors of cadmium of 110 were readily achieved related to the direct introduction of aqueous solutions into an atomic absorption spectrometer. To evaluate the performance of this material, a flow injection system was used for samples of water from different sources, and the accuracy was assessed through recovery experiments and using certified reference materials. All the analytical results obtained were in good agreement with the certified values …
