Improving Resolution of Single Nanoparticles with Agilent 9500 ICP-MS

Accurate determination of trace metallic impurities in high purity titanium is essential for advanced materials applications, including semiconductor and aerospace manufacturing, where impurity levels directly influence performance and reliability. In this study, triple quadrupole Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-QQQ) system equipped with a collision/reaction cell (CRC) was evaluated for the analysis of impurity elements in a high titanium matrix.
