8 Grade 2 Procedures
NOTE 3: Each laboratory is responsible for verifying the validity of the method within its own operation.
8.1 Non-Metal Impurities — See §7, which contains procedures for the following tests:
Assay
Water
Color (APHA)
Chloride
Phosphate
Arsenic and Antimony (as As)

8.2 Trace Metals Analysis
8.2.1 The following method has given satisfactory results in determining trace metal impurities at the values
specified for each of the following metals: aluminum (Al), barium (Ba), beryllium (Be), bismuth (Bi), cadmium
(Cd), calcium (Ca), chromium (Cr), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), gallium (Ga), germanium (Ge), gold (Au), iron (Fe),
lead (Pb), lithium (Li), magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), nickel (Ni), niobium (Nb),
potassium (K), silver (Ag), sodium (Na), strontium (Sr), tantalum (Ta), thallium (Tl), tin (Sn), titanium (Ti),
vanadium (V), zinc (Zn), and zirconium (Zr). Alternate methods may be used as long as they are validated for each
trace metal according to SEMI C1, ‘Method Validation’.
8.2.2 Special Reagents
8.2.2.1 Nitric Acid, Ultra Pure — Use nitric acid specified for low metal ion content.
8.2.2.2 1% Nitric Acid Solution — Dilute 10 mL of ultrapure nitric acid to 1 L using water meeting the criteria for
Type E1.1 in ASTM D5127.
8.2.2.3 Water — The water used for all the dilution, calibration and standards should meet at a minimum the criteria
for Type E1.1 in ASTM D5127 in regard to trace metal analysis.
8.2.2.4 Indium Internal Standard — Make up an indium internal standard solution to a concentration of 20 mg/mL
(ppm) from an appropriate concentrated indium standard solution.
8.2.2.5 Mannitol Powder — Mannitol powder, reagent grade (ACS)
8.2.2.6 5% Mannitol Solution — Prepare a 5% (by weight), dissolve and dilute 5 g of reagent grade Mannitol
powder (ACS) to 100 g using water meeting the criteria for Type E1.1 in ASTM D5127.
8.2.3 Sample Preparation
8.2.3.1 All Elements — In a clean environment, place 200 g of sample into a PTFE dish. Add 5 mL of the 5%
Mannitol solution and 100 mL of the 1% nitric acid solution. Slowly evaporate on a hot plate to dryness avoiding
loss of sample by effervescence or spattering until 1 to 2 mL remain. Dissolve the residue with 5 mL of the 1% nitric
acid solution by heating on a hot plate at low temperature for several minutes. Cool to room temperature, dilute to
50 mL with 1% nitric acid, add an appropriate concentration of the indium internal standard and mix well. Prepare a
reagent blank.
8.2.4 Analysis
8.2.4.1
Using the prepared solutions and blanks, analyze potassium, calcium and iron by graphite furnace atomic
absorption (GFAA) and the remaining elements by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). For
calibration, the standards are made up with the 1% nitric acid solution and a suitable concentration of the indium
internal standard.
NOTE 4: Current ICP-MS technology (2004) allows analysis of all trace metals, see Grade 3 Procedures and SEMI C1, ‘ICP-
MS’.
