A2 Technologies has announced increased sampling and usability capabilities for its Exoscan portable FTIR spectrometer system.
The company said the enhancements extend the capability of this spectrometer to cover an array of applications for both laboratory and field use.
The Exoscan system is engineered to be rugged, compact and easy to use.
Sampling interfaces for the Exoscan system now include internal reflectance, grazing angle reflectance, diffuse reflectance and specular reflectance.
With these enhancements, Exoscan can accommodate liquids, powders, pastes, as well as reflective and non-reflective solids.
Exoscan can be used as a handheld, battery operated FTIR system for field use and, with its optional docking station, as a laboratory bench-top system.
This flexibility enables spectroscopists to non-destructively gather data in the field, develop methods in the lab, and then implement those methods out of the lab.
Exoscan systems are already in use in aerospace, polymer, coatings, geoscience, art conservation, pharmaceutical, and academic applications.
