>Dear everybody:
>
>We have developed a method to activate ordinary zinc to react with water
>for hydrogen isotope analysis. We call it GGC zinc. Thousands of water
>samples have been analyzed in the past two years using GGC zinc. The
>results are very satisfactory. The precision of duplicates can easily be
>reached +-0.7 permil. The GGC zinc has the following advantages over the
>zinc presently used in other labs:
> a. easy storage, can be stored in ordinary desiccator.
> b. never needs washing or degassing.
> c. no difference between batches.
>We would like to have other labs test GGC zinc and make comments on it.
>Anybody who is interested in testing or using GGC zinc may contact us at
>the address bellow. We shall send you 20g GGC zinc upon request.
