Platinum may be one of the easier precious metals to dissolve—but that doesn’t mean it’s easy to analyze.
In this episode, the team walks through sample prep strategies for a range of platinum-containing materials, including metals, alloys, oxides, ores, and organic matrices. They also cover the most reliable wavelengths and isotopes for ICP-OES and ICP-MS, while flagging key interferences like nickel, tungsten, and mercury, as well as tricky chloride-based polyatomics.
