Great instrument.
Rating: 4.0

  • Application Area:Polymers & coatings

"Excellent FTIR instrument - easy to operate, robust, small footprint, and user-friendly. Calibrations are entirely automated. Only complaint is the software licensing - the product key can no longer be used to install the software, and I was told we are required to purchase a new license to install it on another computer."
