Spectroscopy analysis is a popular tool used to determine the functional groups present in samples from the infrared absorbance spectra. The analysis is used to characterize products as well as unknown materials.<\/p>\n<p>This type of instrument has the capacity to analyze a variety of sample types, such as solids, gels, liquids, or emulsions. The most popular Spectroscopy analysis technique is a diamond attenuated total reflection (ATR) accessory, which can be used for every sample type. The FT-IR analysis can be used for qualitative and\/or quantitative analysis of materials. Samples can also be analyzed in KBr pellets, Mull Cells, and liquid cells. An electronic spectroscopy and spectrophotometry reference library\u00a0 is available to assist in the identification of unknown materials and\/or confirm the chemical composition of a material.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Why Us&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#009dd5&#8243; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; make_equal=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.3&#8243; background_image=&#8221;https:\/\/www.impactanalytical.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/19-IMP-0619-ASSET-LOCKER-2-53-scaled.jpg&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_divider color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; divider_weight=&#8221;8px&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; max_width=&#8221;40px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Rubik|500|||||||&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#1a3066&#8243; header_font_size=&#8221;54px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;1.3em&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;|600|||||||&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;38px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.3em&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;14px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_font_size_tablet=&#8221;44px&#8221; header_font_size_phone=&#8221;34px&#8221; header_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;30px&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<h2><strong>Examples<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Because IR absorption is dependent upon a dipole moment change during each molecular vibration and\/or molecular rotation, chemical functional group analysis, as well as molecular characterization and identification, is possible.
