Practical Guide and Spectral Atlas for Interpretive Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

<p>Interpretive spectroscopy provides a basis for the establishment of cause-and-effect relationships between NIR spectrometer response and the chemical properties of the samples. Without established cause-effect relationships the measured data has no true predictive significance. This interpretive process is key for achieving an analytical understanding of the measurement. </p><p>In the expanded second edition of <strong>Practical Guide and Spectral Atlas for Interpretive Near-Infrared Spectroscopy</strong> the authors include new research editorials supplements and molecular structural formulas along with updated references and information on NIR spectra. The thoroughly updated and revised second edition offers a full library of color spectra in a larger format to ensure clarity and reader comprehension.</p><p>Providing a rich set of reference information required to interpret NIR spectra for research and industrial applications this book:</p><ul> <p> </p> <li>Offers more than 300 figures representing all the major functional groups and their NIR frequency ranges</li> <li>Contains over 120 pages of tables and charts illustrating overlapping spectra</li> <li>Covers NIR spectra for organic compounds including alkanes carboxylic acids amines dienes alkynes heterocyclic compounds amino acids and aldehydes</li> <li>Provides comprehensive appendices with spectra-structure correlations example spectra and other useful data for interpreting NIR spectra</li> </ul>
