But when it comes to understanding and analyzing FTIR results, how we interpret
FTIR spectra is a common question.

The Analysis
In order to understand FTIR results, it’s helpful to know a
little bit about how FTIR works.
FTIR can be used on solid, liquid, and gaseous samples. Usually, the amount of
material required for a viable analysis is very small and most analyses can be done
relatively quickly with little sample preparation.

correspond with the various vibrations of the sample’s atoms when it’s exposed to the
infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. For mid-range IR, the wave number
on the infrared spectrum is plotted between 4,000 to 400 cm-1.
Typically, absorbance bands are grouped within two types: Group frequencies and
ngerprint frequencies.

Typically, interpreting FTIR spectra starts at the high frequency end to identify the
functional groups present. The ngerprint regions are then studied to positively identify
the compound. Thankfully, there are vast libraries of infrared spectra available, allowing
our team to compare unknown materials to ensure quick and accurate identi cation.
