Description

A method to determine D2O concentration (mole fraction) of high, medium and low heavy water with Fourier infra-red spectrophotometer had been established. Its outstanding advantages were rapid, convenient, less sample (0.2 mL sample), high precision, and direct determination without pretreatment. For 99.84%, D2O concentration, the precision was better than 0.001. The determined range of D2O was 99.92%-0.015%. (authors)
