Introduction to Micro FT-IR

This year, we are introducing new additions! We will introduce the features of the three basic measurement methods.

In "Microscopic FT-IR," there are three main measurement methods: "transmission method," "reflection method," and "ATR method." In "Microscopic FT-IR," which combines FT-IR with an optical microscope, it is possible to measure small substances of about tens of micrometers that are difficult to measure with conventional FT-IR, using an aperture (field stop). While the transmission method is the basic measurement method in microscopic FT-IR, the reflection method or ATR method may be more suitable depending on the shape of the sample and the feasibility of sampling. 【Characteristics of Measurement Methods】 ■ Transmission Method - Infrared light is irradiated onto the sample, and the transmitted light is measured. - Information is obtained from the thickness of the material that the infrared light has passed through. ■ Reflection Method - Infrared light is irradiated onto the sample, and the reflected light is measured. - Information about the surface of the sample is obtained. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Sampling using capillaries through surface tension! FT-IR analysis has become possible.

Traditionally, sampling of liquid foreign substances has been considered very difficult. In the liquid foreign substance sampling technique for FT-IR analysis, sampling is performed using a capillary and surface tension, allowing for FT-IR analysis. 【Sampling Procedure】 ■ Liquid foreign substances on the substrate ■ Sampling with a capillary ■ Transferring the liquid onto a Si wafer for FT-IR analysis ■ Sampling in progress with the capillary ■ Transferring onto the Si wafer *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Introducing the results of IR analysis on peripheral materials for LCD displays and raw materials (pellets) such as fibers!

PMMA (acrylic), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), and PC (polycarbonate) are utilized in many applications, taking advantage of their characteristic transparency. They are essential materials for industrial products such as peripheral components of liquid crystal displays, protective films for mobile device screens, headlight covers, optical fibers, and textiles. This document presents the results of IR analysis of these raw materials (pellets).

Introducing the results of IR analysis conducted on polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and others!

There are many types of vinyl polymers, and they exhibit various properties depending on the molecular structure of their side chains. Additionally, differences in crystallinity arise from the bonding configuration of these side chains (stereoisomers). In this document, we present the results of IR analysis of representative vinyl polymers, including polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Aites conducts advanced data analysis based on chemical theory, ensuring that even subtle differences are not overlooked. Please feel free to consult us at any time.

• Other analytical equipment

Identification of substances through various approaches such as insights, spectral analysis capabilities, and other analytical methods.

There are many types of thermoplastic resins, among which ABS is widely used in various products due to its unique molecular structure. As an engineering plastic, ABS resin is utilized in a wide range of fields, including electronic products, automobiles, home appliances, and IT-related products. We examined the characteristic IR spectrum of ABS resin using FT-IR analysis.

By conducting two analyses, it is possible to obtain more detailed and accurate results!

This document introduces the characteristics of each spectroscopy method and the spectra obtained when comparing infrared spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Both infrared spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy are vibrational spectroscopies that investigate the vibrational energy of molecules, but the shapes of the spectra obtained from each method differ even when measuring the same substance. Infrared spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy are complementary, and by conducting both analyses, information that cannot be obtained from either method alone can be acquired in a more detailed and accurate manner. For more details, please refer to the catalog provided. 【Characteristics of Infrared Spectroscopy】 ■ Infrared absorption occurs when the dipole moment changes with vibration (infrared active). ■ Vibrations that cause a distortion in electron distribution (breaking molecular symmetry) have high infrared activity. * For more information, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We have launched a new “Audience Control Feature” for TwooCa Mall, enabling merchants to limit product visibility and sales to specific companies, organizations, and communities. With this feature, merchants can now: ✔ Offer employee-exclusive discounts and company sales ✔ Create fan club or community-only merchandise sales ✔ Customize product visibility for specific user groups In addition, by integrating with TwooCa’s payment functions and digital-money-convertible point system, the platform provides a seamless purchasing experience for users. This feature is designed to support value creation in closed communities such as: ・Employee welfare programs ・Fan clubs ・Membership communities ・Sports teams We will continue expanding TwooCa Mall as a platform optimized for employee engagement, member experiences, and community-based commerce. ▼ Press Release https://prtimes.jp/main/html/rd/p/000000108.000076589.html #TwooCa #EmployeeBenefits #Fintech #Cashless #HRTech #CommunityCommerce #SportsBusiness #FanEngagement #DX

Japan is one of the top 10 countries in the world with frequent earthquakes. The 2020 White Paper on Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has also reported an increase in the probability of major earthquakes occurring. Regarding the Nankai Trough earthquake, the probability of an earthquake with a magnitude of 8 to 9 occurring within the next 30 years is estimated to be 70 to 80%. At Hotron, we recommend the introduction of seismic devices for earthquake countermeasures in buildings and equipment. The seismic device 'HK-2' is a product that automatically performs various controls that have been pre-set when it detects strong shaking equivalent to a seismic intensity of 5 lower or higher. For example, it can automatically execute actions such as: "Open automatic doors and gates to secure evacuation routes and access for emergency vehicles" "Transmit signals to the control room and stop facility equipment" "Unlock the keys to locked lockers" "Automatically play voice guidance" For more details, please download the materials or contact us.

The "Hotron Non-Contact Switch" allows you to open and close doors without directly touching door knobs or switches, making it hygienic! You can choose from two types: the "Hand Wave Sensor," which only requires you to wave your hand, and the "Foot Switch," which only requires you to place your foot at the entrance. It reduces the risk of virus and bacterial infections in places where hygiene is a concern, such as food factories, restaurants, hospitals, and nursing facilities. 【Features】 ○ Reduces the risk of virus infection by allowing door operation without contact ○ A wide variety of options to choose from based on application and location ○ Ideal for places where hygiene is a priority, such as food factories and medical facilities ○ Prevents unnecessary detection due to the switch mechanism 【Product Lineup】 ■ Hand Wave Sensor Series ○ Exposed waterproof type, front, down, and side-facing types "PF-R5" ○ Exposed type, front-facing type "PF-R1" ○ Embedded type, front-facing type "PF-U2" ○ Exposed type, downward wide type "PF-R4" ■ Foot Switch Series ○ Slim type with wide opening, vertical beam type "PF-01S" ○ Slim type with wide opening, horizontal beam type "PF-03S" ○ Standard type, horizontal beam type "PF-05" ◎ For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.
