Abstract

Analysis of nonmetallic compounds in iron and steel has become more important with the increase in demand of products of higher quality. In general, the content of nonmetallic compounds in iron and steel is small, and the amount of sample to be used for carbon analysis is limited to only several mg, as the same sample is required for various analysis. For this reason, the gravimetric method by combustion is unavilable. Therefore, an attempt has been made by the author to collect carbon dioxide produced from combustion by cooling with liquid oxygen, a part of which is taken in a gas meter and its quantitative determination carried out by mass analysis, using argon as an internal standard. Blank tests showed values equivalent to about 10γ of carbon, and the errors were 2-3% in samples containing 0.1mg carbon. Also, analysis of carbon in a pure iron containing about 0.01% carbon can easily be made by using a 1g sample.
