Analysis of uranium particles is extremely important for nuclear safeguards and nuclear forensics. This work describes the technical advancements for determining uranium isotope ratios and ²³⁰Th/²³⁴U in single uranium particle without chemical separation procedure by multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (MC-ICP-MS). The proposed method includes:(1) measuring the ²³⁸U, ²³⁰Th and ²³²Th in the procedure blank samples; (2) dispersing the particles with ultrasonic concussion; (3) indentifying the uranium particles using SEM-EDX; (4) transferring single particle to PFA bottle by micromanipulator; (5) dissolving the particles in 0.1 mL HNO₃ at 7.5 mol/L; (6) Measuring ²³⁵U/²³⁸U, ²³⁴U/²³⁵U and ²³⁶U/²³⁵U by MC-ICP-MS; (7) Determinating ²³⁰Th/²³⁴U. Results show that the total mass of ²³⁸U and ²³²Th in process blank is less than 8×10^-5 ng and 1.5×10^-3 ng, respectively. The relative expanded uncertainties for ²³⁵U/²³⁸U, ²³⁴U/²³⁵U, ²³⁶U/²³⁵U and ²³⁰Th/²³⁴U in CRM124-4, GBW04234 and GBW04238 could be better than 3.6%, 3.5%, 3.8% and 15% (k=2), respectively. The results agree with the certificated values within uncertainty range. In addition, an alternative approach for measuring ²³⁵U/²³⁸U, ²³⁴U/²³⁵U, ²³⁶U/²³⁵U and ²³⁰Th/²³⁴U in single uranium particle is proposed for nuclear forensics and nuclear safeguard.
