THE SPECTROGRAPHIC DETERMINATION OF IMPURITIES IN HEAVY WATER

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4234358
A concentrate of the heavy water is evaporated on to silver electrodes and the spectrum excited in the condensed spark discharge. A medium quartz spectrograph is used to record the resulting spectra on llford long range spectrum plates, which are evaluated by visual comparison with standard plates. The method is suitable for the control analysis of heavy water requiring the determination of trace impurities in the range 0.01 to 1 ppm. It is semi- quantitative and determinations can be made to within a factor of 0.7 to 1.5. (auth)
