ANALYTICAL METHOD FOR THE DETERMINATION OF TRACE THORIUM IN URANIUM METAL AND URANIUM COMPOUNDS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4757934
The sample is dissolved in an acid mixture and thorium is separated from uranium by co-precipitation on lanthanum fluoride. Fluoride is largely removed by evaporation with nitric acid but residual traces are complexed using aluminum chloride solution. Thorium is determined absorptiometricaily as the Thorin' complex.
