Abstract
A new, sensitive chelating ion-exchanger colorimetric method has been developed for the determination of iron at the μg/l level in water, based on the direct measurement of light absorption of iron hydroxamate resin complex. In 0.2 N perchloric acid solution, iron could be rapidly, selectively and quantitatively absorbed on the hydroxamate resin. The calibration curve for iron(III) of a 25 ml solution was linear in the concentration range 8.00×10-6 to 5.00×10-5 M. For iron(III) with larger sample volumes, the relative detection limit was increased. Most of the metals interfered negligibly, such as Ca(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II), except for higher concentration of lead(II) and mercury(II) when present at up to 400 times the concentration of iron(III). The effects of EDTA, glycine, thiourea, phosphate, nitrate and chloride on the retention of iron(III) were also examined. Only thiourea significantly influenced the retention of iron(III). The presence of sodium chloride even at a concentration of 3.5×104 times that of iron(III) did not interfere at all. © 1987 Springer-Verlag.
