    Abstract:
    Ionizing radiation dosimetry with thermoluminescence (TL) materials based on silicon or glass can be interesting in its potential use in radiation monitoring as the solution to the constant looking of development of new radiation detectors. In this work, TL characteristics of sodium silicate exposed to beta radiation effects were studied. TL response beta irradiated exhibited a glow curve with two peaks centered at 398 K and 473 K. Samples showed linearity from 0.55 to 13.2 Gy. TL readings after 10 times showed a repeatability with an error of less than 1%. Remain information showed significant losses during the first 24 h, but its information was almost constant after 72 h of storage. The Tmax-Tstop method exhibited three peaks which were mathematically analyzed with a general order deconvolution finding kinetic orders close to the second order for the first peak, meanwhile the kinetic order for the second peak and third peak are close to second order. Finally, the VHR method showed anomalous TL glow curve behavior with an increasing intensity TL as the heating rate increased.
