Fw. Langkilde et A. Svantesson, IDENTIFICATION OF CELLULOSES WITH FOURIER-TRANSFORM (FT) MIDINFRARED,FT-RAMAN AND NEAR-INFRARED SPECTROMETRY, Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis, 13(4-5), 1995, pp. 409-414
Five different celluloses are studied with FT-IR, FT-Raman and near-in
frared (NIR) spectrometry, and the fingerprint region of the spectra i
s assigned. identification of each of the five celluloses is possible
with each of the three vibrational methods. Four different batches of
hydroxyethyl cellulose yield very similar spectra with each of the thr
ee methods. The methods are compared with respect to their capability
to discriminate between celluloses and batches, and with respect to ea
se and feasibility of sample preparation.
