Linearity and reproducibility response of Fricke dosimetry for low energy X-Ray beam

The Fricke dosimeter is the most used, liquid chemical dosimeter. It has been shown to be a feasible option for the absorbed dose standard. The present work aims to determinate a dose-response curve of Fricke solution using different doses and reproducibility test comparing the calculated dose to Fricke solution and Ionizing Chamber. Tests were performed using an X-ray irradiator for biological research at Radiological Science Laboratory (LCR/UERJ). The results showed a linear response to different doses of type A uncertainties from 0.08 to 1.2%. Reproducibility test showed type A uncertainties of 0.16% to the dosimeter.
