During electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies of shales and related samples, it was found that the signals from these samples overlapped strongly those of the internal standards commonly available, such as DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl), nitroxides, and pitch. This paper reports that K/sub 3/CrO/sub 8/ (potassium perchromate), a Cr(V):3d paramagnetic compound can serve as a versatile internal standard for measuring paramagnetic spin concentration and g values of organic free radicals by EPR spectroscopy and for determining magnetic moments by static magnetic susceptibility techniques.
