Infrared microscopy
We analyze the micro particles with the infrared (IR) microscope in the ELLBOGEN laboratory. It is a non-destructive analytical method used mainly in analytics of the organic substances which allows clear identification of the particle material in size from about 10 µm depending on the material type. This technique is used in many branches of industry such as pharmaceutical industry, forensic laboratories, analyses of historical works, research, quality control laboratories and more.
In our laboratory, we use the IR microscope especially for applications in the industrial branches:
- electroengineering: identification of the contamination origins on the contacts and printed circuits
- paint shops: analyses of the foreign particles and imperfections in the layers of paint
- plastics industry: analyses of the foreign particles in the plastic mouldings
- tribology: analyses of deposits from the hydraulic circuits, analyses of the contaminants from filters
- raw material input check: identification of the contaminant origins
- final product check: identification of defects in packaging, identification of the contaminants in the painted products
and other applications in accordance to the customer’s requirements...
