3.1 Magnetic Impurities
Magnetic impurities refer to impurities in the cathode materials for lithium ion battery that can
be adsorbed by the magnetic bar with a magnetic induction intensity of not less than 0.5 T

NOTE: magnetic impurities are usually simple elements or compounds of iron, chromium, nickel
and zinc.

4.1 Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry
4.1.1 Principle
In a clean environment free of magnetic impurities, use a magnetic bar to adsorb and enrich the
magnetic impurities in the cathode material. Use water to wash the enriched magnetic bar, so
as to remove the cathode material attached to the surface; use acid solution to dissolve the
magnetic impurities on the magnetic bar. Adopt the inductively coupled plasma atomic
emission spectrometer, at the recommended wavelength of each element, determine its
emission intensity. In accordance with the standard working curve, calculate the mass fraction
of each element.
