Course content
The subject focuses on infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy and their use for analysis and structure identification in the field of energetic materials. Vibrations of functional energetic groups in molecule, identification of compounds in mixtures and quantitative analysis options are explained. Practical work with infrared spectrometer and work with evaluation software is also included. Handheld FTIR and Raman detectors are presented and their use for unknown sample is described.
