Analysis of elemental impurities in diesel by HR ICP-OES according to ASTM D7111-16

Typical challenges that are faced when analyzing organic samples such as diesel are plasma instability, signal fluctuation due to carbon deposition and matrix-based spectral interferences.

Analytik Jena demonstrates a simple routine analysis using ICP-OES according to ASTM D7771-16 that can detect trace impurities, including sulfur, in diesel with high accuracy and precision.
