The
substance fraction of the atomized component in the total volatilized component. This quantity is measured
in a defined part of the flame, usually the observation space. The fraction atomized
is the result of chemical reactions in the gaseous state. It depends on the bond strength
of the compounds that the component may form within the flame and on the composition
and temperature of the flame. When analysing elements that tend to become oxidized
in the flame, it may be advisable to use as fuel gas mixtures with a reducing component
such as
C2H2
or
N2O
.
