What it is
A Nicolet FTIR spectrometer is a benchtop or portable analytical instrument that uses mid-infrared or broader spectral ranges to perform qualitative and quantitative analysis of a wide variety of materials. The instruments are designed for quality control, research, and analytical services laboratories across industries such as polymers, pharmaceuticals, automotive, energy storage, food and beverage, cosmetics, forensics, nanomaterials, and art restoration.[2][3]
How it works
The Nicolet Summit models are portable FTIR spectrometers that include an optional touchscreen and can be used both in the laboratory and in the field. The Nicolet Apex is a mid-IR only spectrometer with a single external port. The Nicolet iG50 is a dedicated process analyzer for manufacturing environments with customizable sample interfaces. All models comply with ASTM, EP/JP/USP, and 21 CFR Part 11 requirements.[2][3]
