THE SPECTROGRAPHIC DETERMINATION OF ALUMINUM AND BERYLLIUM IN MAGNOX ALLOYS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4236471
The sample is dissolved in dilute hydrochloric acids and to an aliquot of this solution is added a known volume of the internal standard solution containing scandium and vanadium. The solution is then spectrographed by the Porous Cup Electrode technique, using a large quartz spectrograph. The plates are evaluated by the intensity method of plate calibration. The method is applicable for the determination of aluminum in the range 0.7 to 0.9% in the alloys and beryllium in the range 0.01 to 0.03%. The precision of the method is approximately plus or minus 10%. (auth)
