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.

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.

• Analysis and prediction system

PERI products are used at construction sites around the world. This time, we would like to introduce the construction work of the "Dunajec Road Bridge" spanning the Dunajec River in the town of Nowy Targ in southern Poland. The road bridge was planned to be constructed using a balanced cantilever method, dividing the cantilever beams starting from each pier into 10 segments. A particular concern was to strictly adhere to the concrete pouring cycle for each segment. To achieve this, a balanced cantilever carriage (VBC) equipped with a hydraulic advance system and an automatic formwork stripping function was adopted. By utilizing the VBC, it became possible to pour concrete for segments up to a maximum length of 5 meters in a single cycle, allowing for efficient and timely construction. PERI products: 1. TRIO Panel Formwork 2. VARIO GT24 Wall Formwork 3. PERI UP Flex Modular Scaffold 4. VST Heavy-Duty Shoring Tower PERI Japan Co., Ltd.

At a major purchasing specialty store located in Kanagawa Prefecture, we have introduced our commercial aroma diffuser rental service "MajestaFragrance," enhancing the store's atmosphere with fragrance. Installed models: MFmini (4,400 yen per month) × 2 units Adopted fragrance: Freesia Pear To ensure that customers visiting the store can relax during their appraisal and consultation time, we have implemented space branding with a "refined and approachable scent." The fragrance used is "Freesia Pear," which pleasantly spreads the freshness of fruity pear and the vibrant aroma of freesia. It warmly welcomes customers with a clean and high-quality scent. The "MFmini" introduced this time is a compact yet powerful diffuser known for its strong diffusion capabilities. It blends smartly into limited installation spaces such as reception counters and customer service areas, efficiently delivering fragrance. At Majesta Fragrance, we offer optimal diffuser models and fragrance suggestions tailored to the size of the store, type of business, and interior atmosphere. A "free trial installation" is also available before signing a contract.

Hotron Inc. has launched its new product, the "Vehicle Count Sensor CCS3"! This product is a ceiling-mounted sensor that combines infrared and radar technology.
