Effect of ionic strength of aqueous salt solutions in a liquid scintillation system on tritium counting efficiency

Creators

Description

The dependence of the counting efficiency of tritium dissolved in aqueous salt solutions as a function of salt ionic strength has been studied. The scintillation system used was POPOP/PPO/Triton x 100/toluene mixture. The quenching effect of the following salts have been investigated 1. Group I and group II metal chlorides and nitrates. 2. Different halides of potassium. 3. Different ammonium salts. 4. Different sodium oxychlorides
