Summary A direct “tandem” atomic spectroscopic method for the determination of Ca, Fe and Ti impurities in SiC powders with various grain size (0.78〈d50〈48.5 μm) has been developed. The method is based on high temperature halogenation of the sample with Freon 12 in a graphite furnace and ICP-AES detection of the evolved sample components. The concentration of the matrix element silicon in the ICP increased to a maximum value after 10s of heating, independent of the grain size of the powder samples. For performing a calibration with standard solutions a finegrained, purified SiC-powder was evaporated simultaneously with the solution residues. The calibration curves produced using this analyte-addition technique and using within-laboratory solid standards were identical within experimental error.
