TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed to reduce the content of impurities to a ppb level by adding fluorine to hydrofluoric acid wherein the compd. of at least one nonmetallic element selected from a group of boron, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur and chlorine is dissolved as the impurities.
Abstract: PURPOSE:To reduce the content of impurities to a ppb level by adding fluorine to hydrofluoric acid wherein the compd. of at least one nonmetallic element among boron, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur and chlorine is dissolved as the impurities, allowing the impurities to react with the fluorine and then distilling the acid. CONSTITUTION:Fluorine is added to hydrofluoric acid wherein the compd. of at least one nonmetallic element selected from a group of boron, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur and chlorine is dissolved and allowed to react with the compd. The acid is then distilled. By such a method, almost all the impurities can be easily concentrated and obtained in the initial fraction as the distillate. Fluorine is charged into the reaction system in the form of gaseous fluorine, a mixture of an inert gas and fluorine or the soln. of gaseous fluorine in an inert liq. such as hydrofluoric acid. The reaction of the impurities with gaseous fluorine is preferably carried out at -20-+20 deg.C and at atmospheric pressure.

TL;DR: In this paper, the trace antimony in river water was determined by hydride-generation atomic absorption spectrometry, where the water was concentrated after the addition of mineral acids.
Abstract: Trace antimony in river water was determined by hydride-generation atomic absorption spectrometry. The water was concentrated after the addition of mineral acids. Siliceous residues deposited during the concentration were solubilized with hydrofluoric acid and expelled by evaporation in the presence of sulfuric acid. After chelating resin separation, the effluent was acidified with sulfuric acid to ionize the hydrolyzed antimony. The accuracy checked with a biological standard reference material was satisfactory when the insoluble residues in the material were treated with hydrofluoric acid after acid digestion. Antimony contents in the water ranged between 0.1 and 0.9ng ml-1.

TL;DR: In this article, a simple and fast analytical method for complex Ni-based and Co-based heat-resistant alloys has been developed by inductively coupled plasma/atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES).
Abstract: A simple and fast analytical method for complex Ni-based and Co-based heat-resistant alloys has been developed by inductively coupled plasma/atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). Heat-resistant alloys of widely varying composition are dissolved in a mixture of hydrofluoric acid and nitric acid. A demountable hydrofluoric acid-resistant sample introduction system was used in which the surface of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) parts was treated with metallic Na to improve the wetting property of the PTFE. Synthetic standard solutions are used for the calibration. Major and minor alloying elements are determined. The calibration curve method and internal standard method are compared. The internal standard method used two spectrometers and Mg as an internal standard element.

TL;DR: In this article, the determination of silicon, phosphorus and arsenic in siliceous materials based on the formation of their heteropolymolybdates was performed by distillation from phosphorus and the remainder of the sample.
Abstract: Hydrofluoric distillation has been applied to the determination of silicon, phosphorus and arsenic in siliceous materials based on the formation of their heteropolymolybdates. Silicon and arsenic are separated by distillation from phosphorus and the remainder of the sample. Arsenic is determined spectrophotometrically, in the presence of silicon, by controlling the hydrofluoric acid concentration. Afterwards, the sum of silicon plus arsenic is determined gravimetrically with quinoline. Phosphorus is determined in the residue by either of the two methods.

TL;DR: In this paper, an oscillating plate mounted on the sidewall of a treating tank was used for the removal of fine particles from the surface of a silicon substrate by the so-called wedge effect.
Abstract: PURPOSE:To obtain the surface of a silicon substrate, whereon fine particles little stick, by a method wherein a treatment is performed on the silicon substrate using hydrofluoric acid or dilute hydrofluoric acid, and after that, the silicon substrate is dipped in hydrogen peroxide-containing organic alkaline solution of the specific liquid temperature using ultrasonic waves of the specific frequency at the same time and is cried. CONSTITUTION:A silicon substrate 1 is dipped in a treating tank 3 filled up with hydrogen peroxide-containing organic alkaline solution 2 to be performed a treatment. Ultrasonic waves of a frequency of 500kHz or more are applied to the direction parallel to the substrate 1 by an oscillating plate 4 mounted on the sidewall of this treating tank 3. The directivity of the ultrasonic waves is strong at the frequency in this extent and the particle acceleration by oscillation is also large. At this time, the solution 2 is diffused between the silicon substrate 1 and fine particles by a so-called wedge effect, and at the same time, the fine particles are made to liberate from the surface of the silicon substrate by the gentle etching action of the organic alkali in the solution. The liquid temperature of the organic alkaline solution used for the treatment is maintained at 50 deg.C or more by a heater 7.

TL;DR: In this paper, organic acid solutions, characterised in that, instead of hydrochloric acid, they contain hydrofluoric acid, in order by this means to dissolve so-called "mineralisations" and/or other silicic-acid-containing reaction products in drinking water wells.
Abstract: The invention relates to organic acid solutions, characterised in that, instead of hydrochloric acid, they contain hydrofluoric acid, in order by this means to dissolve so-called "mineralisations" and/or other silicic-acid-containing reaction products in drinking water wells, which is not possible with the acid combinations used hitherto. This is associated with the avoidance of a reducing agent or oxidising agent which have previously been required to dissolve manganese oxide (MnO2), in which case it should be noted that, when reducing agents are used, the COD and BOD5 in the reaction waters subsequently pumped out, that is waste waters after regeneration (from wells), is extraordinarily high. When gravel washing machines made of stainless steel are used, pitting corrosion and stress-crack corrosion do not occur, which cannot be avoided when hydrochloric acid is used. There is no problem in neutralising, during well development, any unconsumed hydrofluoric acid via a simple calcium compound (CaO, Ca(OH)2 etc.), absolutely harmless calcium fluoride precipitating out.
