The Raman spectroscopy is expensive in equipment, and the detection limit is high, and the anti-interference ability is insufficient.

[0003] In addition, the commonly used methods for dissolving the sample in powder or solid sample include acid dissolution method, alkali dissolution method and melting method, wherein: The concentrated acid in the acid dissolution method can cause the decomposition of nitrate, and the sample needs to be neutralized and purified after dissolution, and the dissolution process can introduce interfering ions such as Na+ and Cl-, which need subsequent treatment; the alkali in the alkali dissolution method can easily destroy inorganic nitrate, and the temperature and time need to be strictly controlled; the melting method can process the insoluble matrix, but has thermal instability, and the steps are complicated and the recovery rate of nitrate is low.

[0019] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the application will be described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the protection scope of the application.

[0020] The deionized water used in the embodiments of the application has a resistivity of ≥18.2 MΩ·cm.

[0021] The instrument used in the embodiments of the application is: Ion chromatograph (company: Swiss Metrohm, model: 883 Basic IC Plus); The vacuum pump used is a diaphragm vacuum pump (company model: GM-0.33A). The ultrasonic oscillator is an ultrasonic machine (Jiemeng model: JP-031).

[0022] Example 1 The analytical method for nitrate ions in tin hydroxide samples includes the following steps: (1) Nitrate standard solutions with nitrate concentrations of 500 µg / mL and 50 µg / mL were prepared by the following method: Accurately weigh 0.8153 g of potassium nitrate (potassium nitrate dried at 105℃ for 1 h, spectrally pure) into a 100 mL beaker, add deionized water to dissolve it, transfer it to a 1000 mL volumetric flask, dilute with deionized water to the mark, and shake well to obtain a nitrate standard solution with a nitrate concentration of 500 µg / mL. Accurately transfer 10.0 mL of the obtained nitrate standard solution with a concentration of 500 µg / mL into a 100 mL volumetric flask, dilute to the mark with deionized water, and shake well to obtain a nitrate standard solution with a nitrate concentration of 50 µg / mL.

[0023] (2) The working curve is plotted using the following method: 1) Transfer 0.0 mL, 1.0 mL, 6.0 mL, and 10.0 mL of nitrate standard solution with a nitrate concentration of 50 µg / mL, and 2.0 mL and 5.0 mL of nitrate standard solution with a nitrate concentration of 500 µg / mL, respectively, into a set of 100 mL volumetric flasks, add deionized water to the mark, and shake well; 2) Inject the standard solution obtained in step 1) into the anion exchange column of the ion chromatograph. Quantitatively detect nitrate using a suppressed conductivity detector. After injection, analyze the conductivity-retention time chromatograms of standard samples with different nitrate concentrations to establish a peak area-concentration standard curve for nitrate content. Figure 1 As shown, the detection conditions of the ion chromatography system are the same as those of the ion chromatography system for the tin hydroxide sample.

[0024] Example 2 The main steps for detecting nitrate in tin hydroxide materials are as follows: 1) Water extraction: such as Figure 2 As shown, 0.5001g of the tin hydroxide sample to be tested was mixed with 50mL of deionized water and stirred with a glass rod. The mixture was then sonicated at 50℃ for 15min using an ultrasonic oscillator with an ultrasonic frequency of 40kHz. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was transferred to a 200mL volumetric flask and deionized water was added to the mark to obtain the mixture. 2) Solid-liquid separation: The mixture obtained in step 1) is filtered through a 0.45 μm filter membrane using a diaphragm vacuum pump. The filter membrane is made of polyethersulfone, and a clear extract is obtained. 3) Ion Chromatography Detection: The extract obtained in step 2) is injected into the anion exchange column of an ion chromatograph. Nitrate is quantitatively detected using a suppressed conductivity detector. The concentration of nitrate in the tin hydroxide sample is calculated based on the working curve. The nitrate content in the tin hydroxide sample is expressed as ω, with the value expressed as a percentage (%), and is calculated using the following formula: ω=C×V×10 -4 / m; Where: C - the concentration of nitrate ions in the tin hydroxide sample to be tested, µg / mL; V - Volume of water extraction preparation of the tin hydroxide sample to be tested, mL; m - Sample weight, g.

[0025] In this example, the concentration of nitrate was determined to be 1.015 µg / mL, the preparation volume was 200 mL, and the sample weight was 0.5001 g. The calculation results are as follows: ω=1.015*200*10 -4 / 0.5001=0.0406%; Detection conditions for ion chromatography system: Chromatographic column: Anion exchange column, Metrosep A Supp 5-250 / 4.0; The mobile phase consisted of a mixed solution of Na2CO3 and NaHCO3 as the eluent, with Na2CO3 at a concentration of 3.2 mmol / L and NaHCO3 at a concentration of 1.0 mmol / L; and a 5 wt‰ H2SO4 solution as the regeneration solution. Eluent (3.2 mmol / L Na2CO3 + 1.0 mmol / L NaHCO3): Weigh 0.6784 g sodium carbonate (GR) and 0.1680 g sodium bicarbonate (GR), dissolve them in deionized water, and after complete dissolution, bring the volume to 2000 mL. Sonicate the solution for later use. Regeneration solution (5‰ H2SO4): Take 5 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid (GR 98%), slowly add it to 500 mL of deionized water, make up to 1000 mL, sonicate and set aside. Injection volume: 20 μL; Flow rate: 0.7 mL / min; Column temperature: 40℃.

[0026] Example 3 The main steps for detecting nitrate in tin hydroxide materials are as follows: 1) Water extraction: such as Figure 2As shown, 0.1011 g of the tin hydroxide sample to be tested was added to 50 mL of deionized water and stirred with a glass rod. The mixture was then sonicated at 50 °C for 15 min using an ultrasonic oscillator with an ultrasonic frequency of 40 kHz. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was transferred to a 500 mL volumetric flask, and deionized water was added to the mark to obtain the mixture. 2) Solid-liquid separation: The mixture obtained in step (1) is filtered through a 0.45 μm filter membrane using a diaphragm vacuum pump. The filter membrane is made of polyethersulfone, and a clear extract is obtained. 3) Ion Chromatography Detection: The extract obtained in step (2) is injected into the anion exchange column of the ion chromatograph. Nitrate is quantitatively detected by a suppressed conductivity detector. The concentration of nitrate in the tin hydroxide sample is calculated based on the working curve. The nitrate content in the tin hydroxide sample is expressed as ω, and the value is expressed as a percentage (%). It is calculated using the following formula: ω=C×V×10 -4 / m; Where: C - the concentration of nitrate ions in the tin hydroxide sample to be tested, µg / mL; V - Volume of water extraction preparation of the tin hydroxide sample to be tested, mL; m - Sample weight, g.

[0027] In this example, the concentration of nitrate was determined to be 15.974 µg / mL, the preparation volume was 500 mL, and the sample weight was 0.1011 g. The calculation results are as follows: ω=30.587*500*10 -4 / 0.2014=7.90% Detection conditions for ion chromatography system: Chromatographic column: Anion exchange column, Metrosep A Supp 5-250 / 4.0; The mobile phase consisted of a mixed solution of Na2CO3 and NaHCO3 as the eluent, with Na2CO3 at a concentration of 3.2 mmol / L and NaHCO3 at a concentration of 1.0 mmol / L; and a 5 wt‰ H2SO4 solution as the regeneration solution. Eluent (3.2 mmol / L Na2CO3 + 1.0 mmol / L NaHCO3): Weigh 0.6784 g sodium carbonate (GR) and 0.1680 g sodium bicarbonate (GR), dissolve them in deionized water, and after complete dissolution, bring the volume to 2000 mL. Sonicate the solution for later use. Regeneration solution (5‰ H2SO4): Take 5 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid (GR 98%), slowly add it to 500 mL of deionized water, make up to 1000 mL, sonicate and set aside. Injection volume: 20 μL; Flow rate: 0.7 mL / min; Column temperature: 40℃.

This solution contains 0.1 µg / mL nitrate per mL.
