Abstract
Our research group has developed a thermoluminescence dosimeter (TLD) based on pellets of LiF:Mg,Ti mixed with polytetrafluoroethylene (LiF:Mg,Ti +PTFE). This TLD can be used as a personal dosimeter. Extensive type testing, carried out with reference to the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Standard, were performed for the purpose of accepting the LiF:Mg,Ti+PTFE as a personal TL dosimeter. Tests performed include repeatability, batch homogeneity, linearity, detection threshold, and light sensitivity. Results showed that locally made LiF:Mg,Ti+PTFE TLDs met all the standard requirements.
