Test Laboratory for Infrared Spectroscopy / IR Spectroscopy

As a testing laboratory specializing in IR spectroscopy, we analyze the chemical structure and composition of organic and inorganic materials (often performed as FT-IR analysis). Since every molecule has a unique structure, the spectrum can be thought of as a fingerprint. Our contract analysis services primarily include non-destructive material testing, failure analysis, quality control, and purity testing—all without time-consuming sample preparation. For example, through infrared microscopy for the precise analysis of microscopic particles, defects, or layer thicknesses. As an accredited testing laboratory, we offer you a full range of options.

At a Glance

  • Material identification and verification, such as the identification of known or unknown substances.
  • Defect and Damage Analysis: Investigation of contamination, coatings, efflorescence, and analysis of minute particles and fragments.
  • Functional group analysis: Detailed characterization of a substance's molecular structures and bonding patterns.
  • Quality Control: Monitoring oils, greases, adhesives, or paints for consistency and aging.
