Behavior of fluorine, chlorine, and sulfur in basalts

Thesis/Dissertation ·
OSTI ID:6593420
Fluorine, chlorine and sulfur have been determined in 79 terrestrial basalt, 13 lunar mare basalts, 15 achondrites, 27 argillites, and 28 granite samples by pyrohydrolytic combustion ion chromatography. This technique involved the liberation of these volatiles by combustion in water saturated oxygen using an induction furnace. The volatile F, Cl and S species were trapped in an aqueous solution and the concentrations of F-, CL-, and SO/sub 4//sup 2/- were measured using an ion chromatography.
