Significance and Use4.1 This practice is intended for all infrared spectroscopistswho are using dispersive instruments for qualitative or quan-titative areas of analysis.4.2 The purpose of this practice is to set

7、forth performanceguidelines for testing instruments used in developing ananalytical method. These guidelines can be used to compare aninstrument in a specific application with the instrument(s) usedin developing the method.4.3 An infrared procedure must include a description of theinstrumentation an

8、d of the performnace needed to duplicate theprecision and accuracy of the method.5. Apparatus5.1 For the purposes of this practice, dispersive instrumentsinclude those employing prisms, gratings, or filters to separateinfrared radiation into its component wavelengths.5.2 For each new method, describ

9、e the apparatus andinstrumentation both physically and mechanically, and also interms of performance as taught in this practice. That is, thedescription should give numerical values showing the fre-quency accuracy and the frequency and the photometricprecision. State the spectral slit width maximum

Reference to this Practice in Standards6.1 Reference to this practice should be included in allASTM infrared methods. The reference should appear in thesection on apparatus where the particular sp

12、ectrometer isdescribed.7. Parameters in Spectroscopy7.1 Dispersive infrared spectrometers have a source ofquasi-monochromatic radiation together with a photometer formeasuring relative radiant power. Accurate spectrometry in-volves a large number of interrelated factors that determine thequality of

13、the radiant power passing through a sample and thesensitivity and linearity with which this radiant power can bemeasured. Assuming proper instrumentation and its use, theinstrumental factors responsible for inaccuracies in spectrom-etry are resolution, linearity (Practices E 168), stray radiantpower

14、 (Test Method E 387), and cell constants (PracticeE 1252). Rigorous measurement of these factors is beyond thescope of this practice, and a more practical approach isdescribed for the accessible factors.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee E13 on MolecularSpectroscopy and is th

Instrument Operation8.1 The analyst selects the proper instrumental operatingconditions in order to get satisfactory performance (1-3).4Because instrument design varies, the manufacturers recom-mendations ar

17、e usually best. A record of operating conditionsshould be kept so that data can be duplicated by future users.8.2 In addition to operating conditions, the following shouldbe checked and recorded:8.2.1 Ambient temperature,8.2.2 Pen response time,8.2.3 Scanning speed,NOTE 1In some instruments these fu

18、nctions are integrated in the scanmodes.8.2.4 Noise level, and8.2.5 Mechanical repeatability.8.3 Each of the above factors is important in the measure-ment of analytical wavenumber and photometric data. There isusually some lag between the recorded reading and the correctreading. Proper selection of

19、 operating conditions and good,reproducible, sample handling techniques minimize these ef-fects or make the effects repeatable. For example:8.3.1 Variation in temperature of the monochromator orsample may cause changes in wavenumber precision andaccuracy.8.3.2 Scanning too fast will displace the app

20、arent wavenum-ber towards the direction scanned and will decrease the peakabsorbance reading for each band.NOTE 2Some instruments provide for automatic monitoring andcorrection of this effect.8.4 Mechanical repeatability of the monochromator andrecording system as well as positioning of chart paper

21、areimportant in wavenumber measurement.8.4.1 Chart paper should be checked for uniformity of theprinted scale length as received and rechecked at time of use,particularly if the paper has been subjected to pronouncedhumidity changes. Instructions on obtaining proper mechanicalrepeatability may be gi

22、ven in the manufacturers literature.8.5 In the case of computerized dispersive instruments, anyspectrum printed from a computer file must be obtained asprescribed by the manufacturer and should be identical to theoriginal data.PRECISION AND ACCURACY9. Definitions9.1 wavenumber precisiona measure of

23、the capability of aspectrometer to return to the same spectral position as mea-sured by a well-defined absorption or emission band when theinstrument is reset or rescanned. The index used in this practiceis the standard deviation.9.2 wavenumber accuracythe deviation of the averagewavenumber reading

24、of an absorption band or emission bandfrom the known wavenumber of that band.10. Nature of Test10.1 For the purpose of calibration, most methods employpure compounds and known mixtures at specified analyticalwavenumbers. The wavenumbers are either read from a dial,optical display, chart paper, or a

25、computer file.11. Reference Wavenumbers in the Infrared Region (2)11.1 The recommended wavenumber calibration points arethe absorption maxima of a standard (98.4/0.8/0.8 by weight)indene/camphor/cyclohexanone mixture listed in Table 1. Suit-able path lengths are 0.2 mm for the range from 3800 to 158

26、0cm1and 0.03 mm for the wavenumber range from 1600 to 600cm-1. A mixture containing equal parts by weight of indene,camphor, and cyclohexanone (1/1/1 by weight) at a path lengthof 0.1 mm may be used for the range from 600 to 300 cm1.See Table 2 and Fig. 1.11.2 Polystyrene is also a convenient calibr

27、ation standardfor the wavenumber range from 4000 to 400 cm1. Polystyrenefilms, approximately 0.03 to 0.05 mm thick, can be purchasedfrom instrument manufacturers. The recommended calibrationpeaks are listed in Fig. 2.NOTE 3The correction of frequency for the refractive index of air issignificant in

28、the wavenumber calculation only when wavelengths havebeen measured to better than 3 parts in 10 000. Reference (3) tabulatesadditional reference wavenumbers of interest.11.3 For low-resolution prism or filter instruments operatedin single-beam mode, the position of the atmospheric carbondioxide band

29、 near 2350 cm1can be useful. This band may beresolved into a doublet. The 2350-cm1value is for theapproximate center between the two branches. The atmo-spheric carbon dioxide band near 667 cm1is useful in thelow-wavenumber region.12. Dynamic Error Test12.1 For dispersively measured spectra, the foll

30、owing dy-namic error test is suitable for use with most grating and prism4The boldface numbers refer to the list of references at the end of this practice.TABLE 1 Indene-Camphor-Cyclohexanone (98.4/0.8/0.8)MixtureRecommended Calibration Bands5BandNo.Wavenumber,cm1BandNo.Wavenumber,cm11 3927.2 6 1.0

33、ohexanone mixture is remeasured from 1350 to 850 cm1at one fourth of the scan rate used for the reference spectrumand with other operating conditions unchanged. The heightsfrom the baseline of the bands at 1288.0, 1226.2, 1205.1,1018.5 and 914.7 cm1are measured in absorbance units onboth the fast an

34、d slowly scanned charts. The absorbance ratiosA1226.2/A1288.0, A1205.1/A1226.2, and A914.7/A1018.5should not differ by more than6 0.02 between the fast andslow runs.NOTE 4The indene/camphor/cyclohexanone should remain in sealed,refrigerated ampoules.13. Selection of Slit Width or Slit Program13.1 On

35、e of the most important parameters the analyst mustselect is the spectral slit width. The slit width affects resolutionand the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N). Generally, a narrower slitwidth gives higher resolution and lower S/N ratio. These mustbe optimized for any given analysis.13.2 The preferred ma

36、nner of expressing resolution is interms of spectral band width, but methods of measuring thisquantity in all spectral regions are not available.13.2.1 Spectral band width is not constant throughout thespectrum and therefore must be determined in each region ofinterest. In the neighborhood of 1200 c

37、m1, the spectral bandwidth can be determined approximately from the ratioA1205.1/A1226.2 of the (98.4/0.8/0.8) indene/camphor/cyclohexanone mixture, computed in the dynamic error test, asgiven in Table 3.13.3 In each infrared method, typical spectra of the compo-nents, or a spectrum of a suitable mi

38、xture of components,should be included to illustrate the resolution found to beadequate to perform the analysis. These spectra should bedirect copies of the plotted spectra and not redrawn curves.PHOTOMETRY14. Linearity of Absorbance14.1 In a spectrometric method, photometric data are usedto determi

39、ne concentrations. Linearity of absorbance is afunction of instrument response. The relationship must bedetermined in the concentration range of interest.14.2 Procedure for testing linearity and establishing work-ing curves are described in Practices E 168.14.3 Some methods for quantitative analysis

40、 do not requirelinear response. The ultimate criterion for these is whether amethod gives correct answers for known samples.15. Measurement Procedure for Frequency Accuracy andPrecision15.1 From Tables 1-3, select calibration wavenumbers,preferably bracketing each analytical wavenumber and readeach

41、wavenumber ten times.15.2 Average the observed readings for each wavenumber.The wavenumber accuracy is the difference between the truewavenumber and the average observed wavenumber.NOTE 5To check the wavenumber accuracy of a non-scanning instru-ment, balance the instrument at the true value of the a

42、bsorbancemaximum. Adjust the wavenumber drive until maximum apparent absor-bance is found. Always approach the line or band from the same direction.Repeat ten times.15.3 Calculate the precision of each observed wavenumberusing the following equation:s 5(Xi2 X!2n 2 1(1)where:s = estimated standard de

43、viation of the series of results,Xi= individual observed value (wavenumber, absorbance,or transmittance)X= average (arithmetic mean) of the observed values, andn = number of observations.15.4 Results should be specified in the following order: truepeak position of reference material, average wavenum

44、berdetermined, and wavenumber standard deviation.16. Measurement Procedure for Photometric Precision16.1 Photometric precision represents the capability of thephotometer system to reproduce the same value in successivedeterminations. The index of precision used in this practice isthe standard deviat

45、ion.16.2 Photometric precision is determined on a calibrationsample by measuring the absorbance or transmittance of thesame sample ten times, following the same procedure used toobtain the data for the linearity test.16.3 Tabulate the individual readings of apparent absor-bance or transmittance. Cal

46、culate the standard deviation of theten readings using the equation in 15.3. Report the averagereading and the standard deviation.17. Stray Radiate Power17.1 Stray radiant power (SRP) causes an error in thespectrometer zero transmittance reading. If measured at thedesignated path lengths, the indene

47、/camphor/cyclohexanonereference spectrum should show essentially zero transmittanceat 3050.0, 1609.6 and 765.4 cm1. The test spectra at thesewavenumbers should therefore match the spectrometer trans-mittance zero within the manufacturers tolerances. A0.4-mmlayer of pure indene is almost totally abso

48、rbing at 392, 420, and551 cm1and this can be used to establish the stray radiantpower below 600 cm1. This should not exceed 2 % transmit-tance at wavenumbers greater than 600 cm1; the permissibleamount at lower wavenumbers is left to the discretion of theevaluator.TABLE 2 Indene-Camphor- Cyclohexano
