Neutron activation analysis of asbestos from Canada
Description
Concentrations of Al, Au, Br, Ce, Cl, Co, Cr, Fe, K, La, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni, Sb, Sc, Sm, Srm and V were determined in 6 samples of asbestos from Canada. They were equal to (in ppm): Al 1660-3430; Au 0.03-0.04; Br 3.1-11.7; Ce 1.7-4.8; Cl 116-331; Co 35-83; Cr 200-2060; Fe 29300-42200; K 125-867; La 0.28-1.03; Mg 24-25.9%; Mn 418-545; Na 364-1610; Sb 0.65-1.46; Sc 3.73-5.57; Sm 0.09-0.3; Sr 26.7-41.4; V 8.4-14.3. Five toxic elements were found in asbestos: Cr, Mn, Ni, Sb and V. (author) 10 refs.; 2 tabs
