Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The major advantages of an FTIR spectrometer over a dispersive instrument are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The FTIR stands for Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. It is an analytical technique used to determine the organic materials, inorganic materials and polymeric materials. In this technique the infrared light is used for the scan test samples and the chemical properties of material is determined.

The dispersive instrument is also used to identify the organic materials, inorganic materials and polymeric materials. It also used the infrared light, but unable to separate the energy into individual frequency.
