Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic technique for analysis of inorganic materials: a review

FTIR is a very important analytical technique that is widely used for the detection and analysis of inorganic materials. It has a wide range of applications, from chemical composition analysis, structure identification, and phase identification to surface analysis of inorganic materials. Despite its broad effectiveness in the arena of material science, a detailed review of inorganic materials is scarce. Most existing research has focused mainly on the synthesis of organic molecules or specific types of inorganic materials like ceramics and minerals. Also, a few studies discuss how advancements in FIIR technology can be employed to more precisely analyze these materials. Furthermore, there is a lack of knowledge about how FTIR complements other methodologies like X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy,…
