These spectra of detergents, wetting agents, emulsifiers and other surfactant materials are another excellent toolkit for analyzing well utilized, industrially important compounds. All of the compounds come with clear, meaningful chemical names recognizable by analytical chemists, research chemists, process engineers and regulators. In short, its an excellent tool for any chemist responsible for determinations of surfactant materials. Based on the original 130 spectra from the FDM FT-IR Spectra of Minerals this expanded collection includes more mineral spectra and over 120 spectra of inorganic compounds. Its an excellent reference for analytical chemists and geologists alike as it contains basic inorganic materials and minerals used by industry.
Some minerals have samples from several locations around the globe.
Our original mineral spectra are from an authoritative source making them the highest quality spectra. The spectra cover from 400 to 4,800 cm-1. One important use is by those who deal with mineral components or contaminants in their chemical feed stocks. The inorganic spectra are of high quality and show considerable detail making them useful for searching with your spectra or for confirming, for example, the presence of a given inorganic compound in a plastic material. This database was designed for the industrial FT-IR user concerned with materials important to industrial processes such as solvents and reagents, and basic organic chemicals.
