Printed ink on a coated aluminum sample was analyzed using a specular reflection accessory with the unique capability of simultaneous sample viewing.

The capability of the VeeMAX III with ATR to maximize sensitivity by using the accessory’s variable angle feature and a low RI ATR material, ZnS, is investigated.

A polymer film was measured at Brewster’s angle to eliminate interference fringing in the IR spectrum. This technique is beneficial for the analysis of additives.

Liquid samples were analyzed by infrared using fixed pathlength transmission cells and ATR.

A clear KBr pellet minimizes IR scattering and provides the highest quality IR sample spectra. Here, we review how to make the perfect pellet for your application.

The crystallization of coconut oil was measured via FT-IR-ATR at 1-min intervals during a precision cooling ramp, using the MIRacle Peltier.

A section of a fruit berry seed was chemically imaged with infrared spectromicroscopy revealing domains of phospholipid-rich regions from the cell walls of the seed’s skin.

Using a low-volume, multiple reflection ATR, infrared spectra of new and in-service motor oil were collected. Example spectra are presented.

FTIR-ATR sampling was used to detect contaminants in acetone. By evaporating the solvent directly onto the ATR crystal, the impurities were easily measured.

Using an automated FT-IR reflection sampling accessory, the surface of a polymer-coated aluminum film was analyzed. Results were used to investigate chemical uniformity.

Here, we explore the benefits of using a multiple reflection, variable angle attenuated total reflectance (ATR) instrument to generate the most informative spectral data. c

A useful, non-destructive sampling technique for the analysis of non-particulate solids is demonstrated. Diffuse reflection and ATR spectra are compared.

The concentration of ethanol in hand sanitizer was determined using a calibration developed with an automated ATR sampling accessory.

We show that a microgrooved ATR-SEIRAS optimized Si ATR wafer designed to allow high angles of incidence at the electrode-solution interface provides improved signal-to-noise in electrochemical ATR-SEIRAS.
