FTIR
FTIR stands for Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. It is a powerful analytical technique used in material testing and analysis to determine the chemical composition of a sample based on its interaction with infrared light.
In FTIR spectroscopy, a sample is exposed to infrared light across a range of wavelengths. The sample absorbs specific wavelengths of infrared light based on the vibrational modes of its molecular bonds. These absorbances are then measured and used to generate a spectrum, which is a graphical representation of how much light is absorbed at different wavelengths.
By comparing the obtained spectrum with reference spectra or databases, analysts can identify the components of the sample and gain insights into its composition and structure.
FTIR is widely used in various industries, including polymers, plastics, pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, forensic analysis, environmental monitoring, and more.
