Parameters in Spectroscopy7.1 Dispersive infrared spectrometers have a source ofquasi-monochromatic radiation together with a photometer formeasuring relative radiant power. Accurate spectrometry in-volv

16、es a large number of interrelated factors that determine thequality of 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 spectr

17、om-etry are resolution, linearity (Practices E168), stray radiantpower (Test Method E387), and cell constants (PracticeE1252). Rigorous measurement of these factors is beyond thescope of this practice, and a more practical approach isdescribed for the accessible factors.8. Instrument Operation8.1 Th

18、e analyst selects the proper instrumental operatingconditions in order to get satisfactory performance (1-3).4Because instrument design varies, the manufacturers recom-mendations are usually best. A record of operating conditionsshould be kept so that data can be duplicated by future users.8.2 In ad

19、dition 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 functions are integrated in the scanmodes.8.2.4 Noise level, and8.2.5 Mechanical repeatability.8.3 Each of the above fact

20、ors 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 operating conditions and good,reproducible, sample handling techniques minimize these ef-fects or make the effects rep

21、eatable. 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 apparent wavenum-ber towards the direction scanned and will decrease the peakabsorbance reading for each band.NOTE 2Some i

22、nstruments provide for automatic monitoring andcorrection of this effect.8.4 Mechanical repeatability of the monochromator andrecording system as well as positioning of chart paper areimportant in wavenumber measurement.8.4.1 Chart paper should be checked for uniformity of theprinted scale length as

23、 received and rechecked at time of use,particularly if the paper has been subjected to pronouncedhumidity changes. Instructions on obtaining proper mechanicalrepeatability may be given in the manufacturers literature.8.5 In the case of computerized dispersive instruments, anyspectrum printed from a

24、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 the capability of aspectrometer to return to the same spectral position as mea-sured by a well-defined absorption or em

25、ission 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 of an absorption band or emission bandfrom the known wavenumber of that band.10. Nature of Test10.1 For the purpose of

26、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 computer file.11. Reference Wavenumbers in the Infrared Region (2)11.1 The recommended wavenumber calibration points ar

(4 and 5)12.2 The spectrum of the (98.4/0.8/0.8) indene/camphor/cyclohexanone mixture is remeasured from 1350 to 85

35、0 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 and slowly scanned charts. The absorbance ratiosA

36、1226.2/A1288.0, A1205.1/A1226.2, and A914.7/A1018.5should not differ by more than 60.02 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 One of the most important parameters the analyst

37、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 manner of expressing resolution is interms of spe

38、ctral 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 cm1, the spectral bandwidth can be determined ap

39、proximately 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 thecomponents, or a spectrum of a suitable mixture ofcomponents, should be included to illustr

40、ate the resolutionfound to be adequate to perform the analysis. These spectrashould be direct copies of the plotted spectra and not redrawncurves.PHOTOMETRY14. Linearity of Absorbance14.1 In a spectrometric method, photometric data are usedto determine concentrations. Linearity of absorbance is afun

41、ction 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 E168.14.3 Some methods for quantitative analysis do not requirelinear response. The ultimate criter

42、ion 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 wavenumber ten times.15.2 Average the observed read

43、ings 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-scanninginstrument, balance the instrument at the true value of the absorbancemaximum. Adjust the wavenumber drive until m

44、aximum 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 deviation of the series of results,Xi= individual observ

45、ed value (wavenumber, absorbance, ortransmittance)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 wavenumberdetermined, and wavenumber standard deviation.TABLE

Measurement Procedure for Photometric Precision16.1

47、 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 deviation.16.2 Photometric precision is determined on a calibrationsample by measuring the absorbance or trans

48、mittance 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.
