Sorption Preconcentration and Analytical Determination of Cu, Zr and Hf in Waste Samarium–Cobalt Magnet Samples

We developed a method of sorption determination via the atomic emission of Cu, Zr and Hf metals in the waste of samarium–cobalt magnets. This method was based on the preconcentration of impurities using S- and N-containing heterochain sorbents, with further determination of the analytes via inductiv...

description We developed a method of sorption determination via the atomic emission of Cu, Zr and Hf metals in the waste of samarium–cobalt magnets. This method was based on the preconcentration of impurities using S- and N-containing heterochain sorbents, with further determination of the analytes via inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). Different sorbents such as PED (polyethelendiamine), TDA (polythiodimethanamine), PhED (<i>N</i>-phenylpolyethediamine) and PTE (polythioether) were tested for Ti, Cu, Zr, Nb and Hf extraction. The PTE sorbent ensured the maximum extraction of the analytes (recovery 60% for Ti, 80% for Nb, 95–100% for Cu, Zr and Hf) and thus was selected for further research. Additionally, various acidities of chloride solution (0.01–1 M HCl) were investigated for metal sorption. Under the optimised sorption conditions, trace impurities of Cu, Zr and Hf were determined using ICP-OES with a relative standard deviation of less than 5%. The obtained results were confirmed by the added–found method and cross-method experiments. The detection limits (DLs) were 1.5, 2, 0.15, 2 and 0.75 µg/L for Ti, Cu, Zr, Nb and Hf, respectively. The proposed method can be successfully used for the determination of various microelements in other waste REE-magnetic materials.
