Chemical Analysis: Modern Instrumentation Methods and Techniques - Second Edition Francis Rouessac and Annick Rouessac Chemical Analysis is an essential introduction to a wide range of analytical techniques and instruments. Assuming little in the way of prior knowledge, this text carefully guides the reader through the more widely used and important techniques, whilst avoiding excessive technical detail. Covering both instrumentation techniques and the situations in which they will be used, the text always strives to maintain a balance between breadth and depth of coverage. Carefully structured, this book clearly differentiates between separation and spectroscopic methods, and includes a dedicated section on more specialized techniques. The Second Edition of Chemical Analysis has been fully revised and updated throughout and includes some of the emerging techniques such as APXS, AMS, IMS, or devices such as AGS. A new chapter on Elemental Analysis has been added , and additional problems and solutions have been introduced throughout the book. • Fully revised and updated • Provides a thorough introduction to a wide range of the most important and widely used instrumentation techniques • Maintains a careful balance between depth and breadth of coverage • Includes examples, problems and their solutions This will be an invaluable reference for students of industrial and analytical chemistry as well as researchers in the field looking for an overview of the wide range of techniques and instruments available.
