Paper, 'On films produced by vaporised metals and their applications to chemical analysis. Preliminary notice' by W N [Walter Noel] Hartley
Reference number: PP/14/7
Date: 1889
Description
Hartley writes: 'Having recently communicated to the Royal Dublin Society (March 20th) a paper entitled “On the Constitution of the Electric Spark”, I have described a means of obtaining deposits of metals and of metallic oxides, which serves as a very delicate test for some of the metals. It has been considered desirable to devote much further study to the subject, and a method of working has been devised which, so far as it has been applied, appears to be especially useful in the examination of certain metallurgical products, as for instance in the detection and even estimation of the precious metals in copper, lead, and tin, and of certain impurities in copper.'
