Abstract
In this work, a new cloud point extraction (CPE) method was developed for the separation and preconcentration of copper and nickel. The analyte was complexed with 3‐[(8‐{[(E)‐2‐hydroxyimino‐1‐methylpropylidene] amino}‐1‐naphthyl) imino]‐2‐butanone oxime (H 2 mdo) in the initial aqueous solution and octylphenoxy polyethoxy ethanol (Triton X‐114) was added as a surfactant. After phase separation, based on the cloud point in the mixture, and dilution of the surfactant‐rich phase with methanol containing 0.1 mol l −1 HNO 3 , the enriched analytes were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. After optimization of the complexation and extraction conditions (i.e. pH=8.5, H 2 mdo=3×10 −4 mol l −1 , Triton X‐114=0.1% (w/v)) the enhancement factors of 65 and 59 and detection limits of 0.14 and 0.2 ng ml −1 were obtained for copper and nickel respectively. The proposed method was applied to the determination of copper and nickel in several natural water samples with satisfactory results.
