Description

The performance of a dosemeter based on thermoluminescent materials, 7 LiF and 6 LiF, was investigated. The verification if the dosemeter response complies with tests recommended by national and international regulatory organizations was performed. Tests of angular and energy dependence, reproducibility, detectability threshold, batch homogeneity and others were carried out and the obtained response is herein presented. Dosemeter response was evaluated in terms of Hp(10). The tests were carried out taking into account the IRD-RT No 001.01/95 and IEC 1066 reporters that gave the guidelines for this evaluation. The obtained response showed that the studied dosemeter complies with the tests and can be employed for individual monitoring. (author)
