FTIR VSphere Nonvolatile Residue Measurement Accessory



		FTIR VSphere^TMNonvolatile Residue Measurement Accessory The VSphere^TM attachment is an accessory for the qualitative identification and quantitative measurement of Nonvolatile Residues in solvents. The solvent is placed inside a gold plated bowl and evaporated. A thin film left on the walls is detected in a process of multiple transmission-reflections. The applications range from cleanliness to environmental. The minimum detection limit for hydrocarbons is in the range of single micrograms. Patent pending. The VSphere was developed in collaboration with Boeing Rocketdyne, Canoga Park, CA and is available for use with the SOC 400 hand held FTIR. Developed to meet the need for detecting NVRs in solvents brought about by the EPA's elimination of freon based solvents, the VSphere accessory is a revolutionary device which eliminates the solvent from the spectroscopic analysis. VSphere accessories are used in Boeing's and NASA's cleanliness inspection facilities and at 3M Corporation in industrial hygiene applications.
