A PRELIMINARY EVALUATION OF THE APPLICATION OF ATOMIC FLUORESCENCE SPECTROSCOPY TO SPECTROMETRIC OIL ANALYSIS-A COUPLING STUDY OF GRANT NO. AF-AFOSR 1033-66,

Abstract

The report investigates the feasibility of using atomic fluorescence spectroscopy as the instrumental technique in the 'spectrometric oil analysis program' (SOAP). The technique is compared with the other available methods of atomic emission and atomic absorption spectroscopy. It is concluded that atomic fluorescence spectroscopy has advantages over the other methods and additional effort should be spent on its development. (Author)
