Abstract:
Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is a versatile tool used to characterize petroleum products by quantifying additives, detecting contaminants, monitoring degradation byproducts and fighting adulteration. FTIR spectroscopy has become a widely used technique for quickly assessing petroleum product characteristics, and yet many people don’t fully understand how it works and how to make it more efficient. Due to the different properties and testing goal, it is critical to choose the proper technique to facilitate the analyze of petroleum products. This presentation provides a comprehensive introduction to the FTIR testing techniques and how to choose the proper FTIR techniques to satisfy different petroleum product analysis.
