ATR-FT-IR spectra of various fibres
All measurements were carried out using a Thermo Scientific Nicolet 6700 FT-IR spectrometer with a “Smart Orbit” micro-ATR accessory.
Possibilities of classification and semi-quantitative analysis of single- and two-component textile fibres using some of these ATR-FT-IR spectra, PCA and discriminant analysis are discussed in the following paper: Spectrochimica Acta Part A. 2017, 173, 175−181.
