Abstract
An analytical method for separation and determination of thallium species in water using high-performance liquid chromatography with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was developed. The composition and concentration of mobile phase, injection volume, and pH value were optimized respectively with an anion or cation exchange column. The results showed that Tl(I) and Tl(III) were effectively separated using anion exchange column Hamilton PRP-X100, with the mobile phase consisting of 200mmol/L ammonium acetate and 10mmol/L diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (pH=4.2). When using a Dionex cation exchange guard column, CS12A, 15mmol/L HNO3 , and 3mmol/L diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid as the mobile phase, Tl(I) and Tl(III) could be effectively separated. The detection limits of the methods were 3-6 and 9-12ng/L, respectively. In a solution containing Fe ions and oxalic acid, a significant quantity of Tl(I) was oxidized. Fe ions and oxalic acid in the water samples did not interfere with high-performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry measurement results.
