Title: DETERMINATION OF CATION EXCHANGE CAPACITY IN COLLOIDAL SOIL MATERIAL BY MEANS OF RADIOSTRONTIUM (Sr 89)

Journal Article · · Soil Science (U.S.)

An isotope method for the determination of cation exchange capacity (C.E.C.) in colloid soil material by means of Sr/sup 89/ is described. Results are reported on four different types of soil material, and comparisons are made between the isotope method and a flamephotometric determination of absorbed strontium. The effect on the observed C.E.C. values when CaCO/sub 3/ is added to the samples was studied for the isotope method. (auth)
