Inert gas fusion-gas chromatographic method was applied to the determination of nitrogen in steel.
The flow rate bf argon used for inert gas fusion was about 830ml/min, and the extraction was done at 2000°C for 3min. The condition for gas chromatograph was as follows; column length: 2m, column temperature: 40°C flow rate of argon: 100ml/min, and detector current: 190mA. The absorbent was activated charcoal.
Reproducibility of analytical results by proposed method has been proved to be excellent; coefficient of variation was 0.44%. Analytical results by this method had the same accuracy as that by JIS method. Time for analysis was about 10min. As the results, it is possible to use this method for determination of nitrogen in steel during steelmaking process.
