application 1 voltammetric trace analysis analysis of heavy metals total concentration for a fraction of the purchase price of an aas or icp instrument it is possible to carry out metal analyses with the same or improved sensitivity the only thing required apart from small amounts of reagents is a small amount of pure nitrogen no expensive flammable gases no specially constructed fume hoods in the laboratory no costly metal vapor lamps and speciation spectroscopic methods can only determine the total concentration of the metals with voltammetry it is additionally possible to differentiate between various oxidation states of metal ions or between free and bound metal ions this allows statements to be made about the biological availability and toxicity of heavy metals and makes this technique an essential element in environmental analysis with spectroscopy it is only possible to make comparable statements after the complicated separation of the metal species high ionic concentrat

application 2 cvs for the determination of organic additives in electroplating baths cyclic voltammetric stripping analysis cvs and cyclic pulse voltammetric stripping analysis cpvs are widespread methods in the electroplating industry for the determination of organic additives in electroplating baths for many technical coatings particularly in the manufacture of pcbs and semiconductor components this method forms an essential part of production control the quantitative determination of the additive is carried out indirectly via its influence on the deposition of the main components of the electroplating bath as the measurement is based on an electrode reaction that corresponds to the production process the activity of the additive and thus its effectiveness in the galvanization process can be measured directly the most important fields of application for the method are · acidic copper baths · tin-lead baths and tin baths · alkaline zinc baths quantification of the various types of a
