With Fourier-Transform InfraRed spectroscopy, the presence of various functional groups such as C-H, C=C, C=O, O-H, N-H,... can be identified which yields a characteristic spectrum of "fingerprint" of your polymer. Comparison of the peaks of the spectra against known polymers in a software database can yield a positive chemical identification of the polymer under study.

The color of a plastic sample is measured by a color measurement spectrophotometer using a sphere geometry (d/8°) and expressed in the CIELab color space (L*, a*, b*).
If more than one sample is supplied, the color difference between samples can also be determined as the Delta E value (ΔE*)
Please contact us for more information.

By measuring the characteristics and intensity of the emitted light upon irradiation of the sample with X-rays (so-called X-ray fluorescence or XRF), it is possible to identify and quantify which elements are present in your polymer in a non-destructive way. Although elements like Calcium (and lighter) cannot be detected due to low X-ray yields, XRF is very suitable to detect inorganic fillers and impurities such as residual catalysts or heavy metals.
Please include information on the chemical nature (e.g. PP, PE, PET, PA,..) of your polymer with your order.
