Spectrophotometric determination of erbium using kojic acid dye in different rare earth concentrates

A sensitive and selective spectrophotometric method was studied for the determination of erbium (Er) with kojic acid dye (koj) and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) as a cationic surfactant from Egyptian monazite and xenotime concentrates using third derivative spectrophotometry. The calibration curve...

Box 530 El Maadi, Cairo, EgyptA sensitive and selective spectrophotometric method was studied for the determination of erbium (Er) with kojic acid dye (koj) and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) as a cationic surfactant from Egyptian monazite and xenotime concentrates using third derivative spectrophotometry. The calibration curve was linear from 1 to 150 µg/mL erbium. The influence of various parameters and reaction conditions for optimum complex formation were investigated. The relative standard deviation for determination of 1 µg/mL erbium was found to be 1.5 after 5 repeated determinations with percentage error for Er determination from monazite and xenotime concentrates 6.4% and 4.48% respectively. The molar absorptivity of conventional and third derivative spectrum were 0.14 × 103 M−1 cm−1 and 0.13 × 103 M−1 cm−1 respectively and the detection limit was 1 µg/mL.
