A sample portion is weighed and diluted by mass with mixed xylenes or other solvent. An internal standard, which is required, is either weighed separately into the test solution or is previously combined with the dilution solvent. Calibration standards are prepared similarly. The solutions are introduced to the ICP instrument by a peristaltic pump (required). By comparing emission intensity of phosphorus in the test specimen with emission intensities measured with the calibration standards and by applying the appropriate internal standard and background corrections, the concentrations of phosphorus in the sample is calculated.
This test method specifies that the internal standard is combined with the dilution solvent because this technique is common and efficient when preparing many samples. However, the internal standard can be added separately from the dilution solvent as long as the internal standard concentration is constant or accurately known.
