Analysis of organic-inorganic composite materials using FT-IR and EDX.

Here is an example of analyzing organic-inorganic composite materials using FT-IR and SEM-EDX!

We will introduce the analysis of organic and inorganic composite materials using FT-IR and EDX. FT-IR measurements were conducted on the glossy and non-glossy areas of the surface of the PET bottle label, revealing that the IR spectra differed between the glossy and non-glossy areas. Additionally, SEM-EDX measurements were performed on the glossy and non-glossy areas, and the EDX spectrum and backscattered electron image showed that the non-glossy area contained sulfur (S) and barium (Ba), which were not detected in the glossy area. [Analysis Details] ■ Organic analysis using FT-IR - FT-IR measurements on the glossy and non-glossy areas of the PET bottle label surface ■ Inorganic analysis using SEM-EDX - SEM-EDX measurements on the glossy and non-glossy areas *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

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.

Sample 1, including comparison with Ref! Summarize and conduct the candidate analytical methods.

We would like to introduce our "Chemical Analysis On-Demand Service." When conducting component analysis of foreign substances or stains on products, it is important to determine whether organic analysis or inorganic analysis is more suitable, and which specific analysis method is best among organic and inorganic options. We provide a comprehensive service for customers who are struggling with the selection of analysis methods. Since each analysis device can measure different targets, it is necessary to choose a method that fits the purpose based on the information available. 【Features】 ■ Only data for which results have been obtained will be reported ■ Results will be reported for up to 2 methods ■ If you wish to receive results for more than 3 methods, additional costs will be incurred *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Essential materials alongside metals and inorganic materials! Introducing examples of analysis and evaluation services for organic materials.

Organic materials such as solvents, additives, pharmaceuticals, and plastics are essential materials alongside metals and inorganic materials. They have a wide variety of types due to the combination of light elements, and their specificity is manifested through structure, intermolecular forces, and electron behavior. However, it seems that chemical instrumentation analysis and evaluation are necessary for a fundamental understanding of their properties. This document presents case studies of analysis and evaluation services for organic materials.

Observation of samples and elemental analysis are possible! It can be utilized not only in the semiconductor and electronic components fields but also in life sciences and biological fields.

We handle the tabletop SEM (scanning electron microscope) 'TM3030Plus' manufactured by Hitachi High-Tech. It has been half a century since SEM observation became commonplace. SEM observation has become an important observation method in various fields. With the "charge reduction mode" of the tabletop SEM, it is possible to observe and analyze samples that cannot be observed with FE-SEM. It can be utilized not only in the semiconductor and electronic components fields but also in life sciences and biological fields. 【Features】 ■ For conductive samples such as semiconductors and electronic components, SEM observation is recommended mainly in normal/conductive mode. ■ For non-conductive samples such as plastics, paper, rubber, ceramics, and biological samples containing moisture or oil, SEM observation in surface/normal/charge prevention mode is recommended. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We have updated the article on the website of the semi-custom system construction "Select Beam." When planning factories, logistics warehouses, and stores, "system construction" has become an effective means of achieving cost reduction and shortening construction periods. The rationality of system construction through thorough standardization is very high, and it is adopted in many projects. However, due to the differing characteristics of each manufacturer, many business owners find themselves wondering, "Which manufacturer is suitable for our plans?" and "Is it really optimal compared to conventional methods?" In this article, we will compare and introduce the basic knowledge of the advantages and disadvantages of system construction, as well as recommend manufacturers by purpose in a ranking format. ■ Semi-Custom System Construction "Select Beam" This is a unique method by Sakura Structure, and it is a "third option" that is less expensive than system construction. It is the most suitable method for low-rise long-span buildings such as stores, warehouses, factories, and logistics facilities, as well as high-rise buildings like hotels.

"Because the ground is poor, we have no choice but to use a structural slab." Such fixed notions of "over-design" unnecessarily drive up construction costs. In large space buildings such as warehouses, factories, and stores, the choice of floor slab type is one of the most significant variables affecting construction costs. What is important is to compare and verify the advantages and risks of each type, and to derive the optimal solution that is "suitable for the purpose" for the entire building. By reading this content, you will understand the following points: - Characteristics of the five main construction methods with different support forms - Recommended situations for adoption - Cost comparison examples of floor slabs "I am struggling with the dilemma of floor settlement risks and costs on weak ground." "I want to know the optimal solution for the site without being tied to a specific construction method." Construction companies and general contractor representatives facing such issues are encouraged to take a look.
