Title Ethyl silicate
Bibliographic information June 1972, Vol.33, No.6, p.438. 2 ref.
Abstract Method of collection of ethyl silicate - (C2H5)4 SiO2 - in air. The analytical determination involves addition of a molybdic acid reagent to the sample to form a silicomolybdate complex which is reduced by an acid reagent. The colour is read on a colorimetric meter which a 660nm filter. Interferences have not been determined.
