PRODUCT INTRO

This accessory utilizes the principle of Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) to perform rapid, non-destructive infrared spectral analysis of samples such as liquids, powders, and polymers, with little to no sample preparation required. Its working principle is that an infrared beam undergoes total internal reflection at the interface of an ATR crystal in contact with the sample, creating an "evanescent wave" that penetrates the samples surface layer. High-quality surface infrared spectra are obtained by detecting the reflected light that has been attenuated by the samples absorption.
