Abstract

The color reaction of 4,6-dibromo-arsenazo with rare earths has been studied.The experimental results show that RE 3+ reacts with 4,6-dibromo-arsenazo to form a stable purplish red complex(1∶2)in the chloracetic acid-sodium bydroxide buffer solution at pH 1.8 with an apparent molar absorptivity of e=1.2×10 5 at 640 nm.Beer's law was obeyed in the range of 0~2 μg/mL for rare earths.The method has been applied satisfactorily to the determination of 0.0005%~0.0050% rare earths in humane hair.
