The invention relates to the technical field of
nuclear material analysis, in particular to a
plutonium solution
specific activity determination method and application, and the
plutonium solution
specific activity determination method comprises the following steps: taking a
plutonium solution with known
specific activity A1 as a
standard solution, determining the liquid flash
counting rate of the
standard solution, and recording the liquid flash
counting rate as C1; obtaining a second-order conductance spectrum of the
standard solution by using an
ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum method, determining the
peak area of a characteristic absorption peak of tetravalent plutonium in the second-order conductance spectrum of the standard solution, and recording the
peak area as S1; measuring the liquid flash
counting rate of the to-be-measured solution, and recording the liquid flash counting rate as C2; obtaining a second-order conductance spectrum of the to-be-detected solution by using an
ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrometry, determining the
peak area of a characteristic absorption peak of tetravalent plutonium in the second-order conductance spectrum of the to-be-detected solution, and recording the peak area as S2; and calculating the specific activity A2 of the solution to be detected according to the following formula. According to the method,
liquid scintillation counting and
ultraviolet-visible
spectrophotometry are combined, so that combination of activity response and
concentration response is realized, and acquisition of
isotope composition of a plutonium solution to be detected and complex sample pretreatment are not needed.
