Abstract

XRF analysis of heavy metals contents in oak wood (Quercur robur L.). The aim of this study was to determine an amount of adsorbed metals ions from water solutions by oak ( Quercus robur L.) shavings. This paper focuses on XRF analysis of metal contents in examined samples. Necessary material was obtained from damaged flooring strips. Samples were soaked with standard water solutions of lead (II) nitrate, cadmium nitrate and mercury (II) chloride. After 7 days wood shavings were dried and reduced to ashes in muffle furnace. Content of adsorbed metal was marked (XRF) and classified depending on percentage concentration of metal ions in solutions.
