适用范围：<p id="s00002">1.1 This test method covers the determination of 67 elements in uranium dioxide samples and nuclear grade uranium compounds and solutions without matrix separation by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The elements are listed in Table 1. These elements can also be determined in uranyl nitrate hexahydrate (UNH), uranium hexafluoride (UF₆), triuranium octoxide (U₃O₈) and uranium trioxide (UO₃) if these compounds are treated and converted to the same uranium concentration solution.</p> <p id="s00005">1.2 The elements boron, sodium, silicon, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and iron can be determined using different techniques. The analyst''s instrumentation will determine which procedure is chosen for the analysis.</p> <p id="s00006">1.3 The test method for technetium-99 is given in Annex A1.</p> <p id="s00103">1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.</p> <p id="s00004">1.5 <span class="italic">This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. <span class="med"><span class="bold">Warning</span><char: emdash>The ICP-MS is a source of intense ultra-violet radiation from the radio frequency induced plasma. Protection from radio frequency radiation and UV radiation is provided by the instrument under normal operation.</span></span>
