Thermoluminescence Properties of Bioglass for Radiation Dosimetry

Abstract The thermoluminescence technique was employed to study bioglass matrices prepared using the traditional technique of glass making. The synthesized bioglass matrices were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), and differential thermal analysis (DTA) has been studied. The highest thermoluminescent intensity was found for the bioglass matric of 26.91% CaO, 46.134% SiO2, 2.60% P2O5, 24.34%Na2O (mol%), with only one glow peak at 460 k. The TL response illustrations linearity in high gamma dose range from 25 to 1000 Gy. This new bioglass matric might become useful in high-dose fields for dosimetry.
