Identification of chemical groups with FTIR (solid samples)

Qualitative identification of chemical groups in solid samples by Attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR).

Results will be delivered as an FTIR spectrum. In addition, a comparison to an FTIR library will be provided.

The method is not quantitative, but it can be used to identify the main chemical components of the sample.
