Abstract

A spectrophotometric method for the determination of traces of iron in glass and ceramic materials has been developed. The method involves formation of the Fe(II)-phenanthroline complex at pH 3–4 in aqueous medium, followed by its selective extraction and preconcentration on polyurethane foam from 2.5M perchloric acid and finally elution of the complex with acetone for spectrophotometric measurement at 510 nm. A wide linearity range from 0.05 to 3 μ g/ml Fe is obtained with the method. Co, Cu and Ni have no significant effect when they are present in the weight ratios Fe:Co < 1:2, Fe: Cu < 1:10 and Fe: Ni < 1:50. The method yielded satisfactory results when applied to various glass and ceramic samples.
