Determination of Major Metals Contents in Engine Lubricating Oil Based on Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy
Abstract:
In this paper, graphite oven atomic absorption spectroscopy was adopted to determine typical metals contents, iron (Fe), aluminum (Al), chromium (Cr), in engine lubricating oil for a rapid evaluation about engine wearing conditions. Samples were made into translucent micro-emulsion by adding Tween 80 and 1% nitric acid solution, and then Fe, Al and Cr contents were determined. The recovery rate of standard addition method was achieved as high as 95.3% to 101.1%, and relative standard deviation (RSD) of six times parallel tests were all less than 3%. The results indicated that the adoption of atomic absorption spectroscopy to predict engine wearing condition acquired the following advantages: high sensitivity, simple operation, pinpoint accuracy and excellent reproducibility.
