Spectral ranges in IR Spectroscopy NIR MIR FIR 15.000 cm-1 4.000 cm-1 400 cm-1 5 cm-1
What is IR-spectroscopy? • Interaction of light and matter Excitation of vibrations
Types of vibrations example: water stretching vibrations: deformation vibration symmetric stretching vibrations anti symmetric stretching vibrations
Principle of NIR spectroscopy • Excitation of vibrations • Overtone bands • Combination bands • Evaluation of OH, CH, NH functional groups • Requires comparison against known data (Quantification or qualification models)

NIR Spectra • Contain information on the physical form of the material and its chemical structure. Particle size and density difference will be seen as baseline offsets. • Contains broad, overlapping absorbance bands from multiple components and/or functional groups
Analysis values Reference values NIR Evaluation of spectra • Requires comparison against known data • Qualification:comparison against a set of spectra of known good quality“IDENT methods” • Quantification:using spectral information of samples of known concentrations to predict concentrations of new unknown samples. PLS is used for this type of evaluation.
