Abstract

An improved experimental setup based on the thermalization and reflection of neutrons has been used for the determination of total H content and (O+C)/H atomic ratio in oil samples. The count rate response function for this setup gives a relative error of about ±1.5% and a detection limit of 0.09 H w% in the case of different hydrogeneous samples of 300–500 cm3 volumes. Results obtained for motor and household oils as well as for crude oil samples from Nigeria and Hungary are presented.
