Mixed-solvent systems for the flame analysis of petroleum materials

Abstract
Flame methods (emission, fluorescence and atomic-absorption spectroscopy) are particularly valuable in the petroleum industry because they permit petroleum products in organic solvent systems to be analysed directly, although the benefits of these methods for oil analysis have been partly offset by various difficulties. In this paper we indicate how three of these difficulties can be avoided by selecting appropriate solvent mixtures.
