The Spectrophotometric Determination of Boron in Plutonium Using an Oxalate Separation (open access)

The Spectrophotometric Determination of Boron in Plutonium Using an Oxalate Separation

An improved method for the determination of boron in plutonium is reported. Precipitation of plutonium (III) acid oxalate prior to color development with curcumin results in increased precision, greater speed, and lower costs. Results are presented of a statistical study involving all variables.
