SPECTROGRAPHIC DETERMINATION OF IMPURITIES IN NUCLEAR GRADE GRAPHITE

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4078643
The fluoride evolution method was adapted to the spectrographic determination of impurities in graphite. Impurities of B, Ca, Fe, Si, Ti, and V were detemnined by d-c are excitation of sample-copper fluoride mixtures with an estimated precision of plus or minus 56%. Anaiyzing the sample directly without asking permitted the determination of 0.5 to 10 ppm of these elements except calcium. The calcium lower limit was 50 ppm. Asking 1 g of sample and analyzing the rssidue extanded the limits to 0.02 ppm for boron and to 1 ppm for the others. Copper was used as the internal standard. (W.L.H.)
