“…The classic gravimetric method has been used for a long time and adapted to be a standard method by ISO. 7,8 This method may not suit all the sample types well due to potential interferences from other impurities and alloying elements. Modern instrumental methods, such as, atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS), 9,10 ICP-AES, 11,12 ICP-MS, 13,14 and neutron activation analysis (NAA), 15 are considered to be less hindered by interferences, and have been successfully applied to many aluminum alloy analyses.…”

Aluminum alloy is frequently used as component material in research nuclear reactors. Thermal neutron irradiation of aluminum causes it to undergo transmutation to silicon. The production of silicon inside of aluminum alloy changes its material and mechanical properties. Furthermore, the concentration and the isotopic composition of the radiogenic silicon provides information on the irradiation history of the material and operation history of the reactor both of which are important to nuclear forensics and nuclear archaeology. An analytical method has been developed to determine the concentration and isotopic composition of radiogenic silicon using sector field ICP-MS. Applying a mass resolution of 3000 avoided severe spectral interferences from poly-atomic and doubly charged ion species generated from the solution matrix observed using lower resolution mass spectrometers. The measured content of radiogenic silicon in aluminium alloy materials irradiated with known fluence of thermal neutrons agreed well with the theoretically predicted values.

The study of zonal deposition of boron (Figure 3) suggests the use of this procedure for investigating the role of boron in plant nutrition, especially for determining translocation rates and tissue concentrations. As a survey procedure it should serve effectively for classifying the boron-supplying power of the various soils of an area, by analysis of a single plant species growing generally upon them. ACKNOWLEDGMENTThe author is grateful to G. H. Blackmon, horticulturist, Florida Agricultural Experiment Station, for opportunity to cooperate in a study of boron effects in pecans; also to F. B. Smith, chemist, Department of Soils, Gainesville, and B. It. Fudge, associate chemist, Citrus Station, Lake Alfred, for their valuable suggestions in preparation of the manuscript.
