Abstract
The determination of Po-210 in phosphoric acid reagent by alpha-ray spectro metry using extraction chromatographic resin is presented. The decontaminat ion factors of interference elements were measured. It was observed that HC l, HNO3, ascorbic acid, thioacetamide and Cu were free from Po-210 but ph c ontain small amounts of Po-210. Po-210 in phosphoric acid samples was range d from <8 to 2.4 Bq/l. The detection limit of Po-210 in 50 mi of phosphoric acid is 8 mBq/l with a counting time of 1 day under counting efficiency of 30%.
