The Thermo Nicolet Nexus 670 Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer has a microscope, differential interference contrast, and ATR accessories. This instrument, along with the Raman spectrometer, is capable of analyzing organic and some inorgranic materials using reflectance, attenuated total reflectance, and transmittance techniques.
Applications:
- quality control testing of films, plastics, and adhesives used in collection housings
- forensic analysis of materials in documents, art, and artifacts
- determining organic decomposition mechanisms
- assessing the effectiveness of conservation treatments
