Precision
on the molecular level
Why FT-IR analysis?
IR – spectroscopic investigations enable the determination of chemical structures in molecules and provide insights into the basic molecular configuration of an unknown probe. The analysed material can be liquid, pasty or even solid. Only extremely small sample quantities are required. Thus, an excellent identification of singular substances and combinations is possible.

Material analysis by FT-IR spectrometry - How it works
How do material analyses by FT-IR spectrometry work ? This can be explained in three steps. Each material has a very unique molecular fingerprint. This fingerprint can be identified by analyzing the material.
Performance spectrum
Analyze
- Measuring the molecular fingerprint
- Reference measurements for quality monitoring
- Traceable proof of quality
Identify
- Chemical components e.g. additives or foreign substances
- Thermal and chemical stress
- Oxidation, degree of cross-linking and moisture absorption
Verify
- smallest concentrations > 1% of the searched substance detectable
Quantify
- Variances from the ideal profile are immediately detectable
- Trouble-free production process
- Reduced waste
Fields of application
