How It Works

Cary 630 FTIR – A modular system

The Cary 630 FTIR spectrometer follows a modular design with the Cary 630 FTIR engine at the heart. The engine houses all the most important optical components, such as the interferometer, laser, light source and detector. A wide range of Cary 630 FTIR Sampling Modules click seamlessly to the front of the engine.

Cary 630 FTIR – Always compact, always performing

The Cary 630 FTIR spectrometer grows and shrinks depending on the attached Cary 630 FTIR Sampling Module. In this way the Cary 630 FTIR always optimizes the bench space it requires, while the precisely tuned sampling modules ensure high energy throughput – up to 30% greater than other routine FTIR systems – and unparalleled performance.

User-friendly hardware meets intuitive software

The ease of use and flexibility of the Cary 630 FTIR continues with Agilent MicroLab software. The software uses picture-guided workflows to navigate experts and nonexperts through each step of the FTIR analysis. The Cary 630 FTIR with MicroLab software has users up and running samples in minutes.

Applications

FTIR in the pharmaceutical industry

The Cary 630 FTIR spectrometer meets the performance specifications of global pharmacopoeia. In the pharmaceutical industry, the Cary 630 FTIR is used for the identification of drug products, incoming goods and packaging materials as specified in global pharmacopoeias, and provides quantitative information such as the concentration of pharmaceutical ingredients. See the literature section for application notes on the identification and qualification of pharmaceuticals and the quantification of APIs.

FTIR in the polymer industry

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is a well-established and powerful analytical technique that allows powerful insights when performing qualitative and quantitative analysis in the polymer industry. The flexible, modular design of the Cary 630 FTIR allows the user to interchange sampling modules in seconds, to accommodate different sample types. This design makes the Cary 630 ideal for polymer analysis in polymer development, research, and the QA lab.

A versatile tool in lithium-ion battery analysis

The Cary 630 FTIR with MicroLab software form an ideal solution for analyzing materials used in the main components of lithium-ion batteries, including anode, cathode, electrolyte, and separator materials. The Cary 630 FTIR provides an easy workflow for material identification, with the system’s ultra-compact design making it suitable for use in the moisture-controlled environment of a glove box.

Technology

ATR-FTIR Spectroscopy

Attenuated total reflectance (ATR) is the most widely used sampling methodology for Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. ATR-FTIR quickly and easily measures a broad range of sample types, including liquids, solids, powders, semisolids, and pastes. Learn about how ATR-FTIR works, the different types of ATR sampling accessories available, and their applications.

Transmission FTIR Spectroscopy

Transmission FTIR mode is suitable for liquids, gases, powders, and films. Learn about how transmission FTIR spectroscopy works, the different types of transmission FTIR sampling accessories available, and their applications.
