Thermo Fisher Scientific highlighted how understanding the chemical and physical properties of materials during combustion leads to improved materials and better public safety standards in a recent webinar.
The webinar looked at how online fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) – a technique used to obtain an infrared spectrum of absorption or emission of a solid, liquid or gas – can provide multi-component analysis of toxic gases released during combustion events, and can be used as an alternative to single-component analysers or GC (gas chromatography) methods.
‘Multi-component Smoke Toxicity Analysis Webinar’ also looked at how new European railway/transportation regulations (EN 45545-2) impact testing techniques for dangerous acids such as HCl, HBr, HCN, and HF.
