摘要
Eighteen interfering nuclear reactions that likely occur in neutron activation analysis of platinum group elements are studied. Their degrees are calculated by the basic principle of activation analysis. The calculation results indicate that most of the nuclear interferences become significant only if the interfering elements exist in major amount and the elements of interest in trace amount. However, the second\|order interference to platinum analysis from gold and the fission interference to analysis of ruthenium and palladium from uranium cannot be neglected even if the gold and uranium exist as trace constituents in samples.
