An ICP‐OES method using a new poly(acrylphenylamidrazone‐phenylhydrazide) chelating fiber to enrich and separate trace Au(III) and Ru(III) ions from solution samples is established. The results show that 50–500 ng/mL of Au or Ru ions can be enriched quantitatively by 0.1 g of the fiber at pH 4, with recoveries > 96%. The ions can be desorbed quantitatively with 10 mL of 4 M HCl and 3.0% CS(NH 2 ) 2 solution from the fiber column, with recoveries > 97%, and 200–1000‐fold excesses of Cu(II), Zn(II), Ca(II), Mg(II), Mn(II), Cr(III), Fe(III), Ba(II), and Al(III) caused little interference in the determination of these ions by ICP–OES. The chelating fiber can be reused eight times, and the recoveries are all > 95%. The relative standard deviations for enrichment and determination of 50 ng/mL of Au and Ru are in the range 1.8–1.9% (1.9% for Au and 1.8% for Ru). The recoveries of trace Au and Ru ions added to real waste water and alloy samples are 96–98%. The concentration of each ion found in the alloy samples was in good agreement with that provided by the plant. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 81: 2656–2660, 2001
