Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

A technique for mass fraction determination of microalloying additions—Zr, Ce, La, and Y (from 0.001 to 0.1 wt %)—in heat-resistant nickel alloys by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission is described. Results from samples of nickel alloys are in good agreement with the data of spectrophotometric and chemical-spectral analysis. The values of thecontent of Zr, Ce, La, Y in artificial mixtures of nickel-based alloy are reproduced.
