What are some challenges associated with using FTIR in Nanotechnology?
While FTIR offers many benefits, there are also some challenges associated with its use in nanotechnology:
Sample Preparation: Preparing nanomaterial samples for FTIR analysis can be challenging, particularly if the materials are not easily dispersible. Interference: The presence of other materials in the sample can sometimes interfere with the FTIR spectrum, making it difficult to interpret the results. Sensitivity to Environmental Conditions: FTIR spectra can be affected by environmental conditions such as humidity and temperature, which can complicate the analysis.
