Abstract

A Laser-Microprobe-Mass-Analyzer (LAMMA 500) was used for the determination of wood preservatives within the cell-wall layers of pine poles commercially impregnated either with CCF- or CCB-solution. The instrument allows a comprehensive analysis of the preservatives in the cell-wall layers within an area of less than 1 μm2. All elements of the periodic system, including boron and fluorine, are apparently detectable.
