Polymers have become ubiquitous with the modern age to such a point that nearly any multi-component product will contain some polymer content. From cars to kitchen appliances and airplanes to windows, ...
Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is suitable for qualitative analysis of initial polymer materials and end products. With this technique, components of polymer mixtures can be measured and in-process ...
Attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy with a diamond ATR crystal was used to examine 41 historical polymer fragments and a selection of polyurethane fragments ...
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is an established nanoscale imaging technique, offering a topographic map of a surface sample high spatial resolution. The main drawback, until recently, of using AFM has ...
Infrared spectroscopy, which measures light absorption, provides valuable insights into the structure and conformation of biomolecules. When combined with other analytical techniques, Fourier ...
Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) is an analytical technique that has revolutionised material identification and chemical analysis. But what is FTIR? Why is it so important? FTIR ...
Nano-FTIR (nanoscale Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) is a scanning probe technique that is based on the combination of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scattering-type ...
Counterfeiting in the pharmaceutical industry is predicted to reach a value of approximately €52 billion in 2011 (1) and this threat has influenced the development of a range of measures to secure the ...
