FT/IR-4X FTIR Spectrometer

FT/IR-4X Spectrometer

The FT/IR-4X is a powerful Mid-IR FTIR spectrometer, with many features that you find in a research grade instrument, such as non-hygroscopic KRS-5 windows to prevent damage to the interferometer, a temperature controlled DLaTGS detector and a high output ceramic source for maximum sensitivity. Permanent optical alignment is guaranteed by corner cube (retro-reflective) mirrors with auto-alignment for maximum energy.

    FT-NIR Measurement of the Iodine Value in Fat

    Figure 1. FT-NIR system with thermostated cell holder for Iodine value (IV) measurement The Iodine Value (IV) is used as an index for the degree of unsaturation in fats, and is used for evaluating the nature of fatty oils and bio-diesels. The iodine value is typically measured using a wet chemistry method as described in the standard methods of AST...

    FTIR Analysis of Foreign Material using View-Through ATR

    ATR PRO ONE VIEW There are various FTIR methods that can be used to identify foreign material or contaminants. FTIR microscopy is used for foreign material where the size is in the order of few microns, but when a sample with foreign material can be observed by the naked eye, the particle typically is typically greater than several hundred microns ...

    Quantification of Ethanol in Ethanol-based antiseptics

    Figure 1. FT/IR-4600 and ATR PRO ONE When used in infectious disease control, the ethanol concentration in ethanol-based antiseptics used for hand sterilization should be between 70 and 83 percent by volume (vol%). Recently, as a temporary measure against the novel coronavirus, the use of 60 vol% has been allowed when ethanol is difficult to obtain...
