Description
Differential pulse polarography is applied to plutonium determinations in the presence of uranium, in nitric acid solutions from nuclear fuels. Several complexing agents for plutonium(IV) were tested, and a pyrophosphate medium at pH 2.5 was finally selected. The precision is about 1% provided that the U/Pu ratio is less than 5; under these conditions, the method does not require a preliminary separation of uranium. (Auth.)
