Determination of sulfur concentration and humidity in technological products by neutron capture gamma-radiation spectrometry using Cf252 neutron source

Methods of simultaneous determination of sulfur concentration and humidity (water) by neutron capture gamma-radiation with energy of 840.3 keV (sulfur) and 2223 keV (hydrogen), using the californium neutron source with the yield rate of 108 n/sec., were developed. The empirical formula to determine the sulfur concentration in wet assays was developed. Methods of simultaneous and expressive determination of sulfur content and humidity in technological products, using both the semi-conductor and scintillation detectors suitable for industrial conditions, were also developed
