THE DETERMINATION OF SILICON IN URANOUS FLUORIDE

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4229581
The uranous fluoride is dissolved in aluminum sulfate and nitric acid. After formation of silico molybdic acid and reduction to molybdenum blue, the silicon is determined absorptiometrically. Any insoluble residue is filtered off and fused with caustic soda. The melt is dissolved in water and the silicon determined absorptiometrically as above. The method is suitable for a concentration of 10 to 120 ppm in relation to the uranium content. (auth)
