Abstract
AbstractIn the present work, the thermoluminescence (TL) properties and kinetics of beta‐irradiated porcelain used as an electrical insulator are investigated in great depth. Thermal annealing at 1100°C slightly changes the trap system, whereas heating over 500°C increases the visual TL intensity of the peaks. X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, atomic absorption spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to confirm the structural, morphological, and chemical investigations of the materials. The TL glow curve characteristics, repeatability, storage time properties, and dose–response behavior of non‐annealed and annealed porcelain have all been well investigated. Within the confidence interval, the material has been demonstrated to have excellent reusability. A linear response in the dose range of 0.1–3 Gy was observed. TM–Ts, initial rise, and computerized glow curve deconvolution methodologies were used to complete the kinetic study. The outcomes of the detailed investigations demonstrated that the sample was suitable for TL dosimetry potential uses.
