Historical Standard: ASTM C1428-99(2005) Standard Test Method for Isotopic Analysis of Uranium Hexafluoride by Single-Standard Gas Source Multiple Collector Mass Spectrometer Method
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM C1428
1. Scope
1.1 This test method is applicable to the isotopic analysis of uranium hexafluoride (UF 6 ) with 235 U concentrations less than or equal to 5 % and 234 U, 236 U concentrations of 0.001 to 0.1 %.
1.2 This test method may be applicable to the analysis of the entire range of 235 U isotopic compositions providing that adequate standards are available.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
