Abstract
The goal of this study is to compare the thermoluminescence properties of nano and micro structure hydroxyapatite. Nano structure hydroxyapatite was synthesized via hydrolysis method, while the micro structure one was from Merck Company. X-ray diffraction and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to determine the crystal structure and chemical composition of the hydroxyapatite samples. Particles sizes of each sample were estimated using Scherer equation and transmission electron microscopy system. Thermoluminescence properties of the samples were investigated under gamma irradiation. The glow curves of micro and nano structure samples show a peak at 150 °C and 200 °C, respectively. Thermoluminescence responses of both the samples were linear in the range of 25 – 1 000 Gy where, nano structure sample show a greater slope and stronger linearity in comparison to the micro sample. The results show that the thermoluminescence response of micro sample faded rapidly in comparison to the nano sample due to the existence of the peak at higher temperature.
Kurzfassung
Ziel dieser Studie ist es, die Thermolumineszenzeigenschaften von Mikro- und Nano-Hydroxylapatit-Strukturen zu vergleichen. Dazu wurde die Nanostruktur von Hydroxylapatit hydrolysiert, die Mikro-Hydroxylapatit-Struktur stammt von der Firma Merck. Die Bestimmung der Kristallstrukturen und der chemischen Zusammensetzung der Hydroxylapatit-Proben erfolgte mit Hilfe von Röntgendiffraktion und Fourier-Transformations-Infrarot-Spektroskopie. Die Partikelgrößen der Proben wurden bestimmt mit Hilfe der Scherer-Gleichung und der Transmissionselektronenmikroskopie. Die Thermolumineszenzeigenschaften der Proben wurden nach Gammabestrahlung untersucht. Die Glow-Kurve der Mikro- und Nano-Hydroxylapatit-Proben zeigen einen Peak bei 150 °C bzw. 200 °C. Das Thermolumineszenzverhalten beider Proben war linear im Bereich 25 – 1 000 Gy, wobei Nanostrukturproben ein größeres Gefälle zeigen und stärkere Linearität als die Mikrostrukturproben. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass das Thermolumineszenzverhalten der Mikrostrukturprobe ein höheres Fading hat im Vergleich zur Nanostrukturprobe.
