Evaluation of Plastic Materials Analysis of Plastic Samples by FTIR

Many different types of information can be obtained from plastic samples using FTIR systems, such as information for checking raw
materials, the composition of plastic pellets or powders, bonding modes, isotope ratios, copolymer composition ratios, molecular
orientation, and information for analyzing foreign matter or other defects. Since FTIR allows analyzing samples easily and quickly, and also
allows analyzing micro areas and surfaces, it is especially useful for analysis and testing in various plastic product manufacturing processes.
