Substoichiometric determination of traces of palladium by neutron-activation analysis
1Department of Chemistry, The University of Aston in Birmingham, Gosta Green, Birmingham 4, England.
Abstract:
A highly selective, rapid one-step radiochemical separation procedure for palladium has been developed. It is based on the solvent extraction of palladium diethyldithiocarbamate from a 5M hydrochloric acid solution with a substoichiometric amount of copper diethyldithiocarbamate in chloroform. The separation has been applied to the determination of traces of palladium by neutron-activation analysis, in platinum, the rocks W-1 and PCC-1 and a biological material (kale). Amounts of palladium down to 10(-8) g have been determined.
