ANALYTICAL METHOD FOR THE DETERMINATION OF SMALL AMOUNTS OF TRIBUTYL PHOSPHATE IN AQUEOUS RAFFINATES (INFRA-RED ABSORPTION SPECTROMETRY)

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4750023
S>Tributyl phosphate is extracted from the aqueous sample into carbon tetrachloride. The optical density of the extract it an absorption peak at 1029 cm/sup -1/, ascribed to the P-O-C linkage, is measured. The method is intended for the determination of tributyl phosphite in any aqueous raffinate, and is based on standard chemical and infrared procedures. (auth)
