Surface Contamination Measurement by Handheld FTIR
Learn how the Agilent 4300 can deliver an actionable result for the level of surface contamination in less than 30 seconds.
Efficient adhesive bonding of surfaces requires a high level of cleanliness of the surfaces. The 4300 handheld FTIR fitted with a grazing angle, 45 reflectance or diffuse sample interface enables identification and quantification of surface cleanliness in the field. After the surface has been cleaned, the analyzer can be used to detect the presence of contaminants.
Even very low levels of contamination can severely decrease the ultimate bond strength, learn how the 4300 can be used to generate an actionable result for surface contamination in less than 30 seconds.
Who should attend:
- Material scientists, coating manufacturers, manufacturers who use coatings within their manufacturing process. Any manufacturing company may be interested in surface contamination.
