Abstract:Small amounts of magnesium confer valuable properties on nodular cast iron. Ordinary chemical and spectrographic methods for determining magnesium in iron are not satisfactory for concentrations below 0,1%, which is the range of interest in the case of cast iron.It is the object of the present work to study the possible application of activation analysis techniques to this problem.It appears that a short bombardment with deuterons of 12 MeV will produce an easily detectable amount of NaZ2 which will be a measu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
