THE DETERMINATION OF IMPURITIES IN URANIUM BY X-RAY FLUORESCENCE SPECTROMETRY

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4242658
A simple, rapid x-ray fluorescence spectrographic method was developed for the determination of several impurities in uranium. The method is comparable in sensitivity and accuracy to existing spectrophotometric procedures for chromium, irons nickel and zirconium, the impurity elements examined, but is superior because of its speed. The procedure should be applicable to the determination of numerous other impurity elements in uranium. (auth)
