  • Methods of separation of a metal from its liquid-soluble oxide for analysis
    Publication number: 20170138920
    Abstract: Various methods for separating a metal from its metal oxide for analysis are provided. For example, exemplary methods include approaches for providing a process for separating a metal from its water-soluble metal oxide in a pyrotechnic composition. Exemplary embodiments include a method of separation that allows for analysis of both metal and metal oxide using an elemental analysis technique, (e.g., inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES)) and determination of the relative amount of elemental metal and its oxide known as speciation.
