OWS becomes Normec OWS!
We are proudly announcing that OWS will be known as Normec OWS from now on!
Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy is a technique that can be used to identify materials and compounds by creating an infrared spectrum of absorption. While FT-IR spectroscopy is a standard part of compostability testing, at Normec OWS we also offer this as a separate service for individual products or materials. This allows for the identification or verification of materials, checking supplier claims, or establishing purity or degree of contamination.
The FT-IR spectrometer collects high-resolution spectral data simultaneously over a wide spectral range. The Fourier transform mathematical process is then used to convert the raw data into the actual spectrum. The resulting graph is like a fingerprint of the material, enabling the exact materials or compounds to be identified.
In this way, FT-IR spectroscopy provides full insight in case there are any doubts about the legitimacy of a product, or if you wish to verify a material’s composition.
