THE DETERMINATION OF COMBINED NITROGEN IN ZIRCONIUM AND ZIRCALOY

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4047295
Zircaloy or Zr is dissolved in hydrofluoric acid, resulting in the conversion of nitrogen to ammonium fluoride. After the addition of excess sodium hydroxide solution, the ammonia is distilled off and determined absorptiometrically by Nessler reagent. The method is suitable for the determination of up to 300 mu g of nitrogen. The limit of detection is dependent on the purity of the reagents. In this range, the error, except in the lowest levels, should not exceed plus or minus 5%. (auth)
