"Infrared spectroscopy (IR)"

At Lehmann & Voss & Co, infrared spectroscopy is used for a series of chemical substance groups:
slipping agents (OSA, ESA, carboxylic acid amides), antioxidants, antistatic agents, blowing agent pastes, plasticisers, UV stabilisers;
The samples can be prepared in two different ways:
  • Extraction with specific solvents
  • Preparation of films by granulate moulding

Fundamentals - IR Spectroscopy


In the case of IR spectroscopy molecular vibrations are excited; the position of the absorption bands in the spectrum is characteristic for specific molecular groups.
