Determination of copper in the copper chelates by X-ray fluorescence analysis

Determination of metals in metal chelates by X-ray fluorescence analysis. I

Abstract

Copper in copper chelates was determined by X-ray fluorescence analysis by using polyvinylchloride or polyester films in which the copper chelates were distributed or dissolved. A calibration curve was obtained by using the pure copper(II) acetylacetonate dissolved in plastic films as the standard. Determination of copper in several copper chelates and copper chelate-polymers referring to this calibration curve gave a satisfactory result.
