THE DETERMINATION OF SULPHUR IN BERYLLIUM OXIDE

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4808563
The sample is dissolved in a titanium-phosphoric acid reagent, which reduced sulfate to sulfide. The H/sub 2/S thus formed is swept away in a current of N/sub 2/ into a zinc acetate solution. By reaction with p-phenylene-diamine and ferric chloride the sulfide is converted to Lauth's violet, which is determined absorptiometrically. The method is suitable for sulfate concentrations of 20 to 400 ppm, and the error should not exceed plus or minus 10%. (auth)
