The study of volatile trace element concentrations in the solid parts of comet nuclei samples is discussed. Volatile elements are depleted even in primitive meteorites when compared to solar abundances. Since solar abundances are not too well known, cosmic abundances are usually derived from meteorites. In spite of the volatility of elements it seems more reliable to take these abundances from unprocessed cometary material. The behavior of volatile elements and their compounds is different in the outer part of the solar nebula. Homogeneous and heterogeneous accretion models predict different volatile elements compounds. In meteorites only products from homogeneous accretion are detected, but in the low temperature parts of the nebula the condensation behavior may have been different.
