FTIR Detector Used to Identify Comonomers with Similar UV Spectra

Tulane PolyRMC, the academic research partner of Fluence Analytics, recently published a peer-reviewed article for Macromolecular Reaction Engineering that details the use of ACOMP, coupled with an FTIR (Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy) detector, to continuously monitor and characterize a copolymerization reaction of acrylate monomers with an indistinguishable UV spectra. Typically for ACOMP applications, a UV detector...
