Ammonia purification: performance measurement by FT-IR

What Is an Ft-ir and an Ft-ir Spectrometer?

An FT-IR Spectrometer is an instrument which acquires broadband NIR to FIR spectra. Unlike a dispersive instrument, i.e. grating monochromator or spectrograph, an FT-IR Spectrometer collects all wavelengths simultaneously. This feature, called the Multiplex or Felgett Advantage, is discussed in detail on page 3. FT-IR Spectrometers are often simply called FT-IRs. But for the purists, an FT-IR (...

Spatial Resolution in ATR FT-IR Imaging: Measurement and Interpretation

ATR FT-IR imaging with germanium crystals offers the potential for acquiring infrared spectral images at up to four times higher spatial resolution than is possible using conventional reflectance or transmission imaging. There is often some confusion over the meaning and inter-relationship of terms such as “spatial resolution,” “pixel size” or “sampling interval,” and it may be hard to understa...

FT-IR Spectroscopy in Medicine

Infrared spectroscopy has been widely applied for the characterisation of various substances. Due to its sensitivity to the chemical information and architecture of the molecule, infrared spectroscopy can play an important role in new applications such as in the life-science field and not only in the traditional fields of physics and chemistry. Spectroscopic techniques are simple, reproducible,...

15 - 22 FT-IR Study

FT-IR spectra of liver tissue isolated from mice, Mus musculus, have been recorded in the region of 4000 – 400 cm-1 for normal, mercury treated and recovery phase. In this study, the total protein content was found to be decreased in the liver tissues after treatment with median-lethal dose of mercuric chloride. The marked fall in the level of bio-chemical constituent in the tissue due to metal...
