Abstract

The paper deseribes the determination of indium in metallic tin and cadmium metals by the direct method, which is a variant of substoichiometric radioactivation analysis. It is based on substoichiometric extraction of indium diethyldithiocarbamate into carbon tetrachloride. Indium in tin metal was determined by^116mIn (T=54 min), while^115mIn (T=4.5 h), formed by the reaction¹¹⁴Cd(n, γ)¹¹⁵Cd was used for cadmium samples. The irradiated sample was dissolved and the radioactivity of^116mIn or^115mIn, A, was measured. After the separation of indium from the matrix, a known amount of indium, m, was separated substoichiometrically and the radioactivity, a, was measured. Indium was calculated as M_x=m A/a. If a known amount of the element, M, is added to the irradiated sample in advance, the equation for calculation is given as M_x-m A/a−M. By this method, indium can be determined without any consideration of self-shielding and secondary nuclear reaction of the matrix.
