FTIR Analysis

FTIR analysis is often the first step in investigative chemistry, providing a basic, qualitative material type to identify unknown substances when little is known about a material’s properties. Our testing capabilities and quantitave and qualitative analysis give you detailed insights into material composition, helping you make informed decisions about material selection and quality control processes.

Testing services include:

• Unknown substance identification
• Polymer and resin characterization
• Quantitave Compound analysis
• Material quality verification
• Basic property determination

Our FTIR testing capabilities cover a comprehensive range of materials crucial for industrial and research applications. We specialize in analyzing both pure materials and complex mixtures to identify their composition and properties, supporting your research, development, and quality control needs.

Key applications include:

• Material identification and verification
• Research and development support
• Quality control and consistency checks
• Failure analysis investigations
• Contamination source identification
• Assisting in material selection

Using advanced FTIR spectroscopy, we deliver detailed chemical analysis through precise light absorption measurement. Our systematic approach examines how materials interact with infrared light, creating unique chemical fingerprints that identify specific compounds. This powerful analytical method provides quick, effective answers for your most challenging material questions.

Our analytical solutions include:

• Qualitative material identification
• Quantitative compound analysis
• Material property determination
• Quality consistency verification
• Contamination source identification

Because FTIR analysis returns high-level, quantitative results, additional chemical analysis techniques are sometimes required to provide a chemical breakdown of a material. Leveraging our global network of chemistry experts and state-of-the-art FTIR analysis equipment, we provide a full suite of analysis methods to answer your toughest questions, often in the same location.
