FTIR for Lab and Field

A2 Technologies has announced increased sampling and usability capabilities for its Exoscan portable Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer system. These enhancements extend the capability of this spectrometer to cover an array of applications for lab and/or field use.

The system is engineered to be rugged, compact and easy to use. Sampling interfaces for the system include internal reflectance, grazing angle reflectance, diffuse reflectance and specular reflectance. It can accommodate liquids, powders, pastes, as well as reflective and non-reflective solids.

Exoscan can be used as a hand-held, battery operated FTIR system for field use and, with its optional docking station, as a lab bench top system. This flexibility enables spectroscopists to non-destructively gather data in the field, develop methods in the lab and then implement those methods out of the lab.
