Abstract
A neutron activation method of the determination of Pd and Pt in chrom ites and products from copper industry (concentrates, wastes and metal dore) has been elaborated. The method consists in preirradiation sepa ration of Pd and Pt from major and minor components of the samples, ir radiation in a nuclear reactor, radiochemical separation of Pd and Pt from interfering radioisotopes and from each other. The lower limit of detection of Pd and Pt amounts to 2.5 ppb and 50 ppb, respectively.
