X-ray spectrochemical methods were developed for the determination of Mo, W, Nb, and Ta in heat-resisting and corrosion-resisting alloys and of Mo and W in high-alloy steel. The refractory metals are separated from the bulk of the alloy matrix by convertional chemical separations, converted to oxides, fused in borax, and then determined by x-ray spectrochemical analysis. The methods are convenient, rapid, and yield excellent results. (auth)
