Features: "The Laboratory Technician's Handbook" serves as a training textbook and self-study guide for laboratory technicians. The book is divided into two volumes: Volume 1, "Chemical Analysis," and Volume 2, "Instrumental Analysis." This volume (Volume 2) consists of nine chapters, introducing common electrical equipment in laboratories, electrochemical analysis methods, ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry, infrared absorption spectroscopy, atomic absorption spectroscopy, gas chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, and methods for measuring physical constants. This revision maintains the same organizational structure and writing style as the previous edition while placing greater emphasis on practicality in content selection. It takes into account the recent updates and developments in laboratory equipment, considers the current educational level and knowledge base of laboratory technicians, and aligns with the new requirements of modern industry and technological progress in analytical work. The content and arrangement of the book have been comprehensively reevaluated based on the actual needs of laboratory technicians. The descriptions of common laboratory instruments have been updated, some analytical methods and operational procedures for outdated instruments that are rarely used today have been removed, and the coverage of practical operation knowledge and application examples has been enhanced. The content on cultivating the comprehensive abilities of laboratory technicians has also been strengthened. The book fully implements the relevant regulations of China's legal metrology units, and all terms and nomenclature in the book meet standardized requirements. To facilitate the use of this edition as a training textbook, additional examples and exercises have been added.
