Abstract
Instrumental neutron activation analysis was applied to multielement trace analysis of high purity aluminium samples. In order to reduce the production of24Na from the matrix, samples were activated by thermal neutron flux of high cadmium ratio. Detection limits of various impurity elements were evaluated. So called “five nine” class standard aluminium samples were analyzed and concentrations of various impurity elements were determined. The analytical results obtained on zone refined aluminium samples showed that zone refining is effective against many elements, such as Na, Cr, Fe, Co, Cu, Ga, As, Br, Ba, La, Ce, Sm, Yb, Lu, Hf, W, Th and U, but not very effective against the element Sc.
