FTIR engine measurement example Reflection measurement (absorbance comparison of sugar) Comparing the reflection measurement results of sugar powder samples (glucose, sucrose) from the FTIR engine and from a stationary spectrometer, we found it was possible to accurately measure even minute peak patterns...
The composition an unknown polymer sample can be easily characterized by means of combined TGA/DSC-FTIR measurements. Table 1 summarizes the results obtained from the TGA measurement and the IR spectra for the particular sample investigated. The polymers in the unknown material were identified and th...
Figure 1 shows the results for sealing ring 1. In this example, the derivative of the weight loss curve, the DTG curve, was used to identify the individual TG steps. Each step in the TG curve gives rise to a peak in the DTG curve. The TG curve was found to consist of six steps ...
If you are out in the field, in a humid area for example, the instrument should be tough enough to handle the conditions. Who will be using the instrument? If non-experts will be the main users, it makes sense to go for a user-friendly instrument that won’t take too much time to...
Results and Discussion PLS-DA is a supervised classification technique, and is considered more sensitive compared to principal component analysis (PCA) and soft independent modeling of class analogy (SIMCA) when separating spectra that are nearly identical [3]. To build a PLS-DA calibration model,...
Example of a processed FTIR image. Here the ratio A1230/A1655is reported, evidencing the epithelial cells surrounding the ducts. The pixels where the SNR is below 150 have been turned to black. This image corresponds to the framed region in the section shown in Fig.1. ...
Visual LightBar feedback: The multi-colored LED light bar in the front of the instrument provides pass/fail results of product quality with just a quick glance. Monitor the status of your instrument (idle, collect, alert) and be assured it’s ready for the next user to generate consist...
