Copper nickel magnesium alloys, hydrogen

Impurities in zirconium and zirconium alloys and compounds are often determined by emission spectroscopy. Both carrier distillation techniques and poiat-to-plane methods are available (91,92). Several metaUic impurities can be determined instantaneously by this method. Atomic absorption analysis has been used for iron, chromium, tin, copper, nickel, and magnesium (93). The interstitial gases, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen are most often determiaed by chromatography (81). Procedures for carbon, chloride, fluoride, phosphorus, siUcon, sulfur, titanium, and uranium in zirconium are given in the hteiatuie (81,94—96).
