THE DETERMINATION OF COPPER IN FUSED MIXTURES OF SODIUM, ZIRCONIUM AND URANIUM FLUORIDES

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4235487
The sample is fused with potassium pyrosulfate and the resulting melt dissolved in 0.5 M sulfuric acid. Copper is determined after reduction by reaction with 2: 2' diquinolyl. The copper complex is extracted into n-hexyl alcohol, and the absorbency of the extract is measured at 540 m mu . The method covers the range 2 to 50 mu g of copper. The error except in the lowest ranges should not exceed plus or minus 5%. (auth)
