Crowther, A B

Titanium may be determined absorptiometrically using thymol. This colorimetric finish may be applied to the determination of titanium in uranium solutions after its separation by extraction of its chloroform soluble cupferride. In pure uranium solutions interference by other metals is unlikely, but nitric acid, nitrous acid, and peroxides interfere with the thymol color and must be removed The color of the thymol-titanium complex is several times as intense as that formed by titanium and hydrogen peroxide.
