Enhance your FTIR transmission or infrared microscopy with our easy-to-use Micro Compression Cell, intended for soft solid or semi-liquid samples. Compress and flatten your sample between two IR transparent windows to optimise signals through a large clear aperture. Its unique front cap allows your sample to be squeezed without rotating the windows, minimising disturbance to your sample.
Uniform pressure applied across the sample enables greater reproducibility of results.
Non-rotating windows keep the disturbance of your sample to a minimum.
7.0 mm clear aperture allows for a good signal when placed in a FTIR spectrometer; also allows for more than one sample to be loaded at one time when used with an infrared microscope.
Choice of window materials ranging from NaCl, KBr, CaF2, BaF2 or ZnSe ensures we meet your chemical compatibility and spectral range requirements.
Standard 3” by 2” slide mount provides compatibility with all commercially available spectrometers.
