Multiwave 3000 Microwave Sample Preparation System
Classified List of Applications
All used reagents must be of appropriate purity and following concentration:Explanation of the table
y: yes n: no
o: optional, digestion possible with T-Sensor or p-Sensor (in combination with IR Sensor)
H2O2: 30 %H3PO4: 80 %
All methods in this list are conservative recommendations. It is the users resposibility to optimize the methods, with respect to the sample material. Due to different reaction behaviour of the sample, it could be useful to lower the sample weight, vary the reagent mixture or apply softer power profiles in order to avoid spontaneous reactions or to achieve proper results.
When digesting sample materials, which tend to react spontaneously like many organic materials and even metals, it is
recommended to start preliminary experiments with a lower sample weight. The program must start with a slow ramp and the pressure increase rate should be reduced to 0.3 bar/sec.
For some materials which tend to float on the surface, we recommend to use the stirring option in order to improve the contact between sample and acid.
When digesting sample materials which do not react spontaneously, the weight could be increased and the digestion time reduced in further optimizations.
Before starting with decompostions read the Manual very carefully!
HNO3:65 %HCl: 36 %
HF: 45 %H2SO4: 96 %
Methods without p/T-Sensor should not be changed and must not be applied for samples with different or unknown reaction behaviour.
Prior to digestion, check regularly the power and temperature calibration of the instrument to guarantee proper function and reproducible results. The operator is liable to the consideration and - if applicable - the appropriate matching of all parameters.
