Gas chromatographic study of volatile oxides and hydroxides of Tc, Re, Ru, Os and Ir-I Investigation by isothermal gas chromatography.
Traces of radioactive elements were produced by the irradiation of uranium foils (93% (235)U) with thermal neutrons, and of gold foils with 600-MeV protons. They were volatilized as oxides and hydroxides by heating at 1500 degrees in an O(2) or O(2)/H(2)O stream and separated by adsorption chromatography on quartz granules. Compounds in the effluent gas were detected with a Ge(Li) detector and the elements identified by gamma-spectrometry.
