Popis: An electrothermal atomization method of atomic absorption spectrometry using a platinum tube atomizer in air is described. The atomizer consists of 0.025 mm-walled platinum tube and two supports. The remarkable merit of the platinum atomizer is the stability in air, when heated. This paper describes the improved performance for volatile elements like alkalimetals. Detection limits and characteristic mass are calculated for 7 elements and compared with literature values. The platinum atomizer can be used with a simple, effective and relatively low-cost atomic absorption spectrometer for routine in situ analysis.
