Abstract

Advanced laboratories have requirements for high-purity chemicals with less than 500 ppm total impurities (ultrapure chemicals) and with broad analytical definition of each lot. Some economically feasible approaches to the practical analysis of such chemicals, both inorganic and organic, are delineated. Compounds used in the study of lunar samples and in other advanced programmes are noted. EDTA, as the free add, has been prepared by dissolution in water with base and precipitation by addition of add. The product has been broadly characterized. Precision assay is achieved by weight titrimetry, potentiometrically as a triprotic add and photometrically as a chelatmg agent. Other tests applied include elemental analysis, ash, loss on drying, particulatc matter, and tests for nitrilotriacetate, arsenic, and chloride. Boron, silicon, and trace metals are determined by emission spectrography. Many of the procedures are applicable to other high-purity organic chemicals.
