Non-Destructive Analysis of Substrates and Contaminants by Handheld FTIR
Agilent Technologies: Non-Destructive Analysis of Substrates and Contaminants by Handheld FTIR
Ensuring the cleanliness and integrity of substrates before bonding or coating is a crucial application in numerous industries.
Contaminants, even in trace amounts, can significantly impact a substrate's surface, affecting its stiction (static friction) properties. This, in turn, can lead to compromised bond strength and adhesive properties, causing premature wear and, ultimately, material failure.
Our webinar will delve into the cutting-edge technology of the Agilent 4300 handheld FTIR spectrometer, specially equipped with the specular reflectance interface. This powerful tool enables precise identification of substrate materials and evaluation of the presence of contaminants. Moreover, it allows for accurate quantification of these contaminants, ensuring your substrates meet the highest quality standards.
