Dear researcher,
I have FTIR spectra of plastics and I need to identify their chemical composition. there's any software or database for this issue?
I found Poseidon, but I don't know the process or parameters about it...
Thank's in advance for your answers
Almost all FTIR manufacturers offer databases for their equipment, but none of them are free.
You can try free trial of Know-It-All software. https://sciencesolutions.wiley.com/knowitall-spectroscopy-software/
Many of equipment manufacturers license it
Most FTIR spectrometers come with software that has a searchable library.
If you dont have access to the data in that way....
There are online spectra databases - try a simple search like "polymer ir spectra database"
You may have to do it the old fashioned way and compare by eye.
