How to test for iron and nickel / [by Lyndsie Selwyn].: NM95-57/17-4-2016E-PDF

"Spot tests are one of the simplest analytical techniques for identifying metals. This CCI Note describes the procedure and the required materials to detect iron or nickel in metals using commercial spot test papers. The first step in the procedure involves testing known samples of iron and nickel to gain experience using electrolysis and the test papers, and to confirm that the test papers are working properly. Then unknown metals can be tested. For more information on electrolysis and spot tests in conservation, consult The science behind electrolysis and test papers for metals"--Intro., p. 3.
