Abstract:Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) has been widely used in nuclear industry analysis because of its characteristics such as fast analysis speed, low detection limit, wide linear range and simultaneous analysis of multiple elements. In this paper, the decomposition method of nuclear industrial sample, separation technique, sampling technique and interference correction method were introduced, and the advantages and disadvantages of each method were summarized and compared. The development of various MS types and combination techniques based on the traditional quadrupole ICP-MS as well as their application in nuclear industry were reviewed. The key points and difficulties of ICP-MS application in nuclear industry analysis were discussed, and the development direction of ICP-MS was prospected.
