Description

The applicability of thermal neutron activation analysis and X-ray fluorescence analysis for the determination of Na, Cl, I and S concentration in mineral waters has been investigated. A 0.4-mg Cf-252 neutron source in water moderator and a Ge(Li) detector for neutron-activation analysis as well as a Fe-55 exciting source and a Si(Li) detector for X-ray fluorescence analysis were used in the investigations. Sensitivity for Na, Cl and I is about 10 ppm, for S about 30 ppm. (author)
