The Universal Sampling accessory is a multi-purpose sample compartment accessory that can be used for transmission, diffuse reflectance, variable angle specular reflectance, and polarized grazing angle reflectance measurements. This versatile Universal Sampling accessory may be the only accessory you need to purchase for a wide range of samples, yet it delivers optical performance superior to that of most accessories dedicated to single applications. Application solutions include: Thin film analysis of coatings on metal surfaces, Corrosion analysis, Orientation studies, Diffuse reflectance of powdered or rough samples for: - QC of pharmaceuticals - Fabrics - Surface coatings - Clays, minerals, coal, Micro-transmission of micropellets, fibers, polymer inclusions
The Universal Sampling accessory is a multi-purpose sample compartment designed for use with all Agilent FTIR spectrometers. It supports transmission, diffuse reflectance, variable angle specular reflectance, and polarized grazing angle reflectance measurements.
Key features include a horizontal sample platform with micrometer-controlled vertical adjustment, kinematic pin-in-place holders for quick mode switching, and independently adjustable input and output optical stages. The accessory can function as a 2.5X beam condenser for small samples like fibers or micropellets.
The accessory is designed for transmission, diffuse reflectance, variable angle specular reflectance, and polarized grazing angle reflectance measurements.
For this mode, the incidence and reflection angles can be varied from 15° to 85°.
The spectrum results from only 16 scans co-added at 4 cm⁻¹ resolution.
