Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) in combination with microscopy is a powerful and high-resolution analytical technique that is widely used in the fields of polymer analysis and materials science. It enables the detailed investigation of the chemical structure and composition of polymers and other materials at the microscopic level. Some applications and advantages of FTIR microscopy are

Identification and spatial information of polymers
High-resolution characterisation of polymer composition
Structural analysis
Investigation of functional groups
Fault diagnosis and quality control
