Influence of interfering elements on the electrochemical antimony hydride generation
Vacek, Tomáš ; Hraníček, Jakub (advisor) ; Rychlovský, Petr (referee)
This thesis is focused on the study of different interfering elements during antimony electrochemical hydride generation. Interferences were studied for electrochemical hydride generation with electrolytic cell and also for chemical hydride generation using sodium tetrahydroborate as a reduction agent. The study included the comparison with oxygen influences. Hydride-forming elements (selenium and arsenic), transition metals (zinc, copper and nickel), different anions (chlorides, sulfates and nitrates) and sodium were tested as interferents. The most serious interferents were hydride-forming elements and nickel, where 100 % signal supression was observed in high interferent concentrations. As opposed to sodium and nickel, where almost none signal supression was observed at all concentrations.
