What FTIR can help you understand
Use infrared spectra to investigate functional groups and compare materials against a supplied reference or an appropriate library.
Choose the measurement scope
- Routine FTIR spectrum
- Material or reference comparison
- Agreed functional-group interpretation
A library match supports identification but is not proof of composition or purity. Pyridine acidity, in-situ, gas and coupled measurements are separate scopes.
Your agreed result package
Linked to the accepted samples, method and reporting conditions. No duplicate output charge.
A library match supports identification but is not proof of composition or purity. Pyridine acidity, in-situ, gas and coupled measurements are separate scopes.
Prepare your samples
Describe the material, physical form, surface or bulk region of interest, contamination, solvent and reference material. ATR or transmission preparation is confirmed for the sample.
Do not dispatch restricted or unstable material before acceptance. The quotation and shipping instructions confirm the receiving location and any cross-border constraints. Shipping time is additional to laboratory turnaround.
Planning questions
What should I prepare?
Describe the material, physical form, surface or bulk region of interest, contamination, solvent and reference material. ATR or transmission preparation is confirmed for the sample.
What is outside the standard scope?
A library match supports identification but is not proof of composition or purity. Pyridine acidity, in-situ, gas and coupled measurements are separate scopes.
When does turnaround begin?
8–12 working days is the indicative laboratory period after technical acceptance and receipt of all required samples and information. Preparation, special conditions and shipping can extend the overall schedule.
