Novel spectrophotometric method for the determination of molybdenum in a PVA medium.
2002
A novel spectrophotometric method for the determination of trace molybdenum in the presence of a large amount of tungsten was developed. This proposed method was based on the formation of a green charge-transfer polyoxometalate, molybdo-11-tungstophosphate-3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine-N-propanesulfonic, which was solubilized and stabilized in a PVA medium; the wavelength of the maximum absorption was at 660 nm. Beer’s law was obeyed in the Mo concentration range of 0.04 - 1.6 µg ml-1. The molar absorptivity was 1.35 × 104 l mol-1 cm-1. The developed method avoided the interference of WVI, and was conveniently applied to analyses of some tungsten ores containing MoVI with satisfactory results.
