Introduction to Quantitative
•
Analysis
FTIR is commonly used for qualitative analysis
• You must be aware of this type of analysis before
going towards quantitative analysis
• The probe size of FTIR is ideal for the study of
phase behavior of polymers (i.e, Moleculer
vibrations and size scale is in angstrom)
• It can characterize the nature and strength of
strong interactions.
• It can determine the fraction of interacting groups
in a certainly H-bonded system.
Cont’d
• Consider the following blend system:
• s
Note: These all curves have Gaussian shape, Baseline at A=0 and are separated
By frequency at distances greater than w1/2 of the individual bands.
Curve fitting: cont’d
Again consider V1=1730: V2=1700: V3= 1670: V4= 1655:
V4= 1640
