This study focuses on the long-term determination accuracy of rare earth elements (REEs) in geological matrices using ICP-QMS. The results show good agreement between measured and certified values under optimum experimental conditions. Additionally, the study monitors the influence of two storage materials on the determination accuracy of REEs, with polypropylene (PP) showing higher precision and lower cost compared to perfluoroalkoxy (PFA).
This work presents the long-term determination accuracy study of ICP-QMS for rare earth elements (REEs) in geological matrices. Following high-pressure closed acidic decomposition, REEs are measured repetitively across seven months by ICP-QMS. Under optimum experimental conditions (including spray chamber temperature, gas flow rate, sampling depth, etc.), the REE contents in geological standard materials from basic (basalt BCR-2 and BE-N) to intermediate (andesite AGV-2) and up to acidic (granite GSR-1) show good agreement with the certified values, giving relative errors below 10%. Here, the influence of two storage materials (perfluoroalkoxy PFA and polypropylene PP) on the long-term determination accuracy of REEs has also been monitored. It is found that the relative errors of REEs using a PFA container range from -6.6 to 6.3% (RSDs < 6.0%), while that using a PP container are within -4.0 to 3.9% (RSDs < 4.6%). By using PP material as a solution storage container, the accuracy of REEs quantification in a series of real geological samples are checked, showing the RSDs of less than 5.0%. This work first clarifies the long-term stability of REEs quantification by ICP-QMS covering two types of storage materials, confirming the reasonability of PP material as a daily storage container in terms of higher data precision and lower cost.
