Aqueous-organic partition coefficients for Rn-222 and their application to Radon analysis by liquid scintillation methods

Creator:

Cantaloub, Michael G.

Abstract:

A method is described for determining the partition coefficient, K, for radon gas distributed between an aqueous phase and an organic solvent. The method uses sequential extractions of radon into equal volume aliquots of organic solvent. The radon-laden organic liquid is then counted on a liquid scintillation analyzer with alpha-beta...
