Comparative performance study of ICP mass spectrometers by means of U "isotopic measurements"
(2000)
The performance of four commercially available ICPMS instruments of three different types was compared by means of uranium "isotopic measurements". Examined were two quadrupole sector (different generation, different manufacturer), one single detector double focusing magnetic sector and one multiple collector double focusing magnetic sector instruments. The same samples of the IRMM-072 series were used under routine conditions to measure the 233U/235U and the 233U/238U ratios which, in these samples, vary over almost three orders of magnitude from ~ 1 to ~ 2 · 10-3. Within expanded (k = 2) uncertainties, good agreement was observed between the certified values and the data internally corrected for mass-discrimination effects. The magnitude of the evaluated uncertainties was different for each type of instrument. With the multiple collector instrument, expanded uncertainties varied from - 0.04% to- 0.24% for the 233U/235U ratio, and from - 0.08% to - 0.27% for the 233U/238U ratio. They were ~ 1 to 5 times larger with the single detector magnetic sector instrument, and ~ 10 to 25 times larger with both quadrupole sector instruments. With the multiple collector instrument, repeatability of the measurements seemed to be limited by the difficulty of correcting properly for instrumental background, whereas with the single detector magnetic sector instrument the counting statistics was the only limitation (on smallest ratios). Apparent mass-discrimination was clearly found to be larger but more reproducible (and hence easier to correct for) in the case of magnetic sector instruments than for both quadrupole sector instruments. If space charge effects were the main source of mass-discrimination for all instruments, these results are in contradiction with the hypothesis of the size of mass-discrimination decreasing with the acceleration voltage. With the single detector magnetic sector instrument in particular (when operated by changing the ion energy only), our results pointed at more than only one major source of mass-discrimination, with variable size depending on the ratios measured.
Analytische Methoden zur Feststellung der Herkunft eines Baustoffes sind bislang kaum entwickelt worden. In Deutschland gibt es eine Reihe von Kalkiagerstätten, die in unterschiedlichen geologischen Formationen Kalk oder Dolomit enthalten. Das unterschiedliche geologische Alter von Kalken sowie die ursprüngliche mineralische Zusammensetzung und die geologische Historie spiegeln sich im 87Sr/88Sr-lsotopenverhältnis weder. Mittels der Thermionen-Massenspektrometrie kann dieses Verhältnis ermittelt und somit zur Herkunftsbestimmung eines Kalkes herangezogen werden.
