An account is given of the development of a simple and reliable procedure for determining boron in Zircaloy at the parts per million level. The sample is dissolved in a mixture of bromine and methanol, and the boron is separated by distillation and determined as its rosocyanin complex with curcumin. The reproducibility of the method is characterized by a standard deviation of 0.03 ppm at the 0.3 ppm level. (auth)
