3 Principle
Dissolution of a test portion in a fluoroboric-nitric acid mixture followed, after suitable dilution, by aspiration
into an air/acetylene flame of an atomic absorption spectrometer. Determination of the cadmium content by
measuring the absorption of the 228,8 nm line emitted by a cadmium hollow-cathode lamp.
4 Reagents and materials
During the analysis, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only distilled water or water of
equivalent purity.
4.1 Boric acid, H BO solution 40 g/l.
3 3
4.2 Hydrofluoric acid, HF 40 % (ρ = 1,13 g/ml).
4.3 Nitric acid, HNO (ρ = 1,40 g/ml).

4.4 Fluoroboric-nitric acid mixture
Mix together 300 ml of boric acid solution (4.1), 30 ml of hydrofluoric acid (4.2), 500 ml of nitric acid (4.3) and

4.5 Cadmium stock solution, 1,0 g/l Cd
Transfer (1 ± 0,001) g of cadmium (Cd ≥ 99,99 %) into a 250 ml tall-form beaker. Add 10 ml of water and 5 ml
of nitric acid (4.3), cover with a watch glass and heat gently (if necessary) until the cadmium is completely
dissolved. Boil gently to expel nitrous fumes. Allow to cool and transfer the solution quantitatively into a
