resence in stellar matter is leading to new theories of the production of heavy
elements in the stars. Nineteen isotopes of technetium, with atomic masses
ranging from 90 to 108, are known. 97Tc has a half-life of 2.6 x 10^6 years.
98Tc has a half-life of 4.2 x 10^6 years. The isomeric isotope 95mTc, with a
half-life of 61 days, is useful for tracer work, as it produces energetic
gamma rays. Technetium metal has been produced in kilogram quantities. The metal
was first prepared by passing hydrogen gas at 1100C over Tc2S7. It is now
conveniently prepared by the reduction of ammonium pertechnetate with hydrogen.
