Analytical Method for THE DETERMINATION OF TOTAL CARBON INnURANIUM CARBIDE BY COMBUSTION ANDnABSORPTION OF CARBON DIOXIDE

摘要

An appropriate weight of the sample is ignited in a current of argon and oxygen, then oxygen only at a temperature of 950-1050°C and the carbon dioxide produced is absorbed in soda asbestos and weighed.n43. PG Report 448 (S)nUranium oxides, in the form of powder or pellets are ignited at 900°C in an oxygen stream. Carbon dioxide evolved is isolated by means of a cold trap cooled in liquid oxygen and measured, after expansion at room temperature, as a gas volume.
