What will you learn on this course?
This course covers all the practical theory about Fourier Transform InfraRed spectroscopy. It will review the EM spectrum focusing on the IR region.
It will detail the characteristic absorption spectra of various compounds such as alkanes, alkynes, alcohols, esters, ethers, and will provide examples in the form of exercises for IR interpretation.
The course will review the different components of FTIR such as IR sources, detectors, beam splitter and Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR). It will guide the delegate with sample-specific factors affecting spectral quality and mixtures.
There will be worked-through examples which will include the analysis of pharmaceutical and food samples by FTIR and then the analysis of the data.
