Abstract

The thermoluminescence technique was employed to study bioglass matrix prepared using the traditional technique of glass making. The synthesized bioglass matrix were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), and differential thermal analysis (DTA) has been studied. The highest thermoluminescent intensity was found for composition bioglass 26.91 % CaO, 45.68 % SiO2, 2.50 % P2O5, 25.094 %Na2O (mol%), with only one glow peak at 460 k. The TL response illustration is slightly sub-linear in the high gamma dose range from 25 to 1000 Gy. This new glass system might become useful in high-dose fields for dosimetry.
