Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry: Sample Analysis of Zirconium and Ruthenium in Metal Organic Frameworks

Abstract

The Forensic Analytical Center at the U.S. Army Edgewood Chemical Biological Center (Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD) was recently requested to analyze metal organic frameworks (MOFs) using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICPMS). Specifically, the MOFs were analyzed for the zirconium-to-ruthenium ratios. The ability to process MOFs for specific elemental components allows scientists to modify the MOF structures to sequester chemicals through adsorption and hydrogen bonding.
